Overview
Details

We have a diverse student population from different backgrounds with varied interests.


Looking to elevate your organization, and bring it to the next level? Integrate learners from Loyalist College’s GAS Service Learning program. We're dedicated to bridging the gap between our skilled students and innovative businesses like yours, fostering real-world collaborations. Our students are not only equipped with a diverse range of skills but also possess a deep passion for solving real-world challenges.

Learner skills
Leadership, Communication, Time management, Service knowledge, Team work
Deliverables

Deliverables are negotiable, and will seek to align the needs of the learners and the organization. 


Some final project deliverables might include: 

  1. A 10-15 minute presentation on key findings and recommendations
  2. A detailed report including their research, analysis, insights and recommendations


Project Examples

Learners can complete a substantial project for your organization over the placement period. We suggest providing a starting project, but as the placement goes on there may be other duties or projects the learner is asked to complete as well. Providing a central project creates structure for the internship, and gives the learner (and company) a tangible goal.


Project activities that learners can complete may include, but are not limited to:

  • Community Engagement and Outreach Plan for Non-Profit Organizations
