The Kāpili ‘Oihana Internship Program (KOIP) is now accepting applications for college interns for the 2012 summer session and humbly asking for your support in helping to recruit students. The session operates from May 21, 2012 to August 10, 2012. All KOIP interns must commit to a site for at least 120 hours (part-time) or 240 hours (full-time) in a 12-week period. KOIP is open to all eligible applicants that are 18 years or older and currently enrolled in college.
Kāpili ‘Oihana, meaning “to build a career or profession,” strives to provide Native Hawaiian college students with the opportunity to apply academic experience in a real world environment, meet and learn from professionals in their field of interest, develop skills and competencies and build their network of contacts in hopes of increasing their hiring potential upon graduation.
To be considered, applicants must submit an online KOIP Intern Application and also provide a cover letter, a resume and verification of current college enrollment.
Internship stipends may be available through Kamehameha Schools’ Financial Aid & Scholarship Services (FASS) department. Internship stipend applications are available only to students who have been offered and have accepted a non-paid internship position through the Kāpili ‘Oihana Internship Program. Awards are limited based on the availability of funding.
Interns looking for opportunities in a variety of different fields are encouraged to apply. The deadline for internship applications submission is Wednesday, February 29, 2012.
