EDL 934 Internship

This course provides the candidate with an immersion experience with an experienced and successful superintendent of schools. For most of the internship, the candidate works in a district other than his/her own, although the final project for this course is a Capstone that seeks to solve a critical district-wide instructional issue in the candidate’s home district. Within the framework of the Leadership Standards, candidates may customize the internship experience to fill gaps in their knowledge and skill set. This course is three credits and runs through both fall and spring semesters to give the candidate the full breadth of experience throughout a superintendent’s work year. The internship spans a minimum of 125 hours in the mentor superintendent’s district and 100 hours in the intern’s home district (completing the Capstone).
