Internship Announcement

We are pleased to announce that DTC student Chuck Folkins has accepted a professional internship with the City of Vancouver. He will be responsible for developing and delivering a complete and highly detailed needs assessment that examines primary and secondary City operations from a training/performance perspective.

Chuck says he intends to uncover gaps in skills/performance, determine their causes, and recommend viable solutions, including multimedia training programs that he and other DTC students can develop. "The City of Vancouver hopes my project will set the groundwork for subsequent internships," says Folkins. "They are keen on the prospect of long-term involvement with WSUV interns."

As should be the case with any DTC internship, Folkins is confident his project will, short term, provide him with real-world experiences in that it will reveal opportunities for him to help the City improve its training processes. In the long-term, Folkins believes the experience gained through this internship will provide solid experience for professional employment.
