Part-Time Internship

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A PART-TIME INTERN?

The part-time program at Elevate Leadership Institute allows students to attend on certain days of the week, while still being immersed in the culture at Elevate Life. Interns in this program will serve alongside full-time interns weekly and have similar opportunities, but they are not required to fulfill the complete schedule required for full-time interns. Part-time interns are given the opportunity to gain hands on ministry and leadership experience and can receive an accredited Associate Degree in Leadership at the end of two years. Due to the fact that the part-time program structure requires less hours per week, it will take longer for students to achieve an accredited degree. There is a specific degree plan that must still be followed, which enables students to earn degrees. If the student is not able to complete 2 full years in the program, they are able to earn a Certificate of Learning in Leadership and Ministry upon the completion of one full year in the program.
