Taking Internships To The Next Level

General

SPC is now taking internships to the next level by pairing students from different departments at the college and offering them the opportunity for real work experience. A fine example is the good work being performed by a team of students at Vincent House.   Vincent House is a membership community for persons who are recovering from mental illness.  Last January Kelley Ferranti, Career Placement Specialist reached out to learn about their program.  Ligia Gomez, Program Director at Vincent House was looking to refresh their web site with current, vibrant pictures of the staff and members. Ferranti informed them about the SPC internship program in Web Development.  Within weeks, Sharon Sinton, a Web Development student in the Computer & Information Technology Program secured the internship position.

Later during the semester, Susan Biszewski-Eber, Internship Coordinator became aware that Vikki Mann, a photography student from the Humanities & Fine Arts Program was looking for more hours to complete photo internship. A meeting of both students and Gomez convened and both Sinton and Mann are now working collaboratively on the Vincent House refreshed web site.

 

Teamwork between different departments is an everyday occurrence in the workplace.  SPC is now taking internships to the next level by pairing departments offering students the opportunity for a real work experience!

 

Internships are great opportunities for students to exercise skills learned in the classroom.

Internship Office Helps Student With Community Mentor

General

reposted from SPC Blue and White

Nikki Cook, a former U.S. Air Force servicewoman, has completed her capstone course in SPC’s Health Service Administration Program. The capstone provides graduating students with the opportunity to integrate what they have learned under the mentorship of an employer in the community.

At the beginning of the semester, Cook’s original placement fell through and left her searching for a last minute replacement mentor and position. On the advice of an HSA professor, she contacted the SPC Internship Office for assistance for help. Internship Coordinator Susan Biszewski-Eber sent Cook’s resume out to several community partners. When Suncoast Hospice saw that Cook was a veteran, they quickly sent her resume to Daphni Austin, Professional & Veteran Liaison at Suncoast Hospice.  Impressed with Cook’s background and skills, Austin offered to be her mentor.

Under Austin’s mentorship, Cook said she has had an amazing experience working with the Suncoast Hospice Veteran’s Program. She observed the coordination of care with Bay Pines and James Haley V.A. hospitals and learned about health benefits for veteran patients.  In April, Hospice flew 76 veterans to DC to visit their memorials. Cook was instrumental in planning the Honor Flight’s Mission 9 Orientation and helped make the flight successful.

“My Capstone experience turned out better than I could have imagined,” Cook said.
