The National Newcomer Navigation Network (N4) program was pleased to partner with the Bachelor of Global and International Studies (BGInS) at Carleton University over the Fall 2020 term in support of their innovative, virtual experiential learning course, or e-internship. This course is offered to third-year students as an alternative to overseas internships, allowing greater accessibility to real-world, hands-on projects with a non-profit, community partner. This term N4 worked with 23 students on 10 projects supporting focus areas in healthcare and settlement and included communications and graphics design, research, event planning and public relations activities.
These virtual e-internships will be offered again in January 2021 as well as in future terms and BGInS welcomes project ideas from our N4 members. Projects must be capacity-building in scope, can be tailored to individual interns or to groups of up to 4 students and entail approximately 80 hours of individual effort over the semester.
For more information or to discuss a project idea, please contact Dr. Marylynn Steckley, GINS 3100 Professor at MarylynnSteckley@cunet.carleton.ca. To be considered for January 2021, all projects must be submitted by December 18th, 2020.
