Internship
Michigan Association of Community and Adult Education
The Michigan Association of Community and Adult Education (MACAE) is seeking a hard-working individual who is interested in Early Care & Education; Adult Education, Literacy & ESL; Alternative Education; and Enrichment, Recreation & After School issues to do an internship with our organization. Those interested in nonprofits, associations, or government advocacy might be interested in this internship. This internship might also be valuable for you if you are interested in the fields of Administrative Office Management, Advertising, Event Planning, or Web Design, etc. MACAE has promoted Community Education in Michigan for nearly 30 years. Community Education encompasses lifelong learning and includes adult education, alternative education, after-school enrichment/recreation activities, early childhood programs, day-care programs, literacy programs, pre-school programs and senior programs. This is a part-time, non-paid position located in our Okemos office.
Responsibilities
• Provide administrative support to the Executive Director and Communications Coordinator
• Work on professional development activities and MACAE’s monthly meetings
• Work with our members to provide them services the Association offers
• Further your education through learning about how nonprofits and associations operate
• Learn about the programs our members work in to better serve them
• Learn about grassroots advocacy and participate in the process

Previous Internship Program Participant Testimonial:
“Not only has this internship improved my professional skills, but I found a passion for educational issues that I wasn’t aware I possessed. During my first two weeks at MACAE, I had met the organization’s board members, done general office duties, attended House and Senate hearings on important education bills and been given huge responsibilities regarding the MACAE newsletter, because that aspect of MACAE matched my career goals. Within a month, I had established source relationships with professionals throughout the state. This internship has helped me develop into a professional young woman, ready to enter the workforce. When I began, I still hoped to work as a copy editor after graduation. Within two weeks, my mind was set on finding a job in education. Without this internship, I wouldn’t have discovered a whole new world of possibilities that would bring out the fire within me. I believe that my career will be greatly impacted by this valuable internship.”

Tips for your internship
The success of your internship will depend largely on how you approach it.
Here are some tips:
Be prepared.
Read up on the company before you get there. Know something about the advertiser's products and markets or the agency's clients and whatever else is critical to your employer's growth and profitability. Talk to anyone who has done an internship at the company before. One clever idea is to write your "What I learned this summer" report before you start the job, and make sure you do learn all that you hope to learn.
Don't wait for work to be assigned.
When you arrive on the job, find out what needs to be done and volunteer to do it. Don't be a nuisance. But don't be a wallflower, either. Ask questions. Ask to be included in meetings. (If you are invited to attend meetings be sure to ask what attire is appropriate, in advance.) Get to know the professionals around you. Learn what they do. Help all you can.
Don't get discouraged.
If there's dumb work to be done, do it with a smile, quickly and well. Be interested in everyone. Even in the worst situation, there's a lesson: "How to do things better someday when it's your turn."
Write objectives.
What do you want to accomplish? What do you want to learn? Write out your objectives. Share them with the employer’s internship site coordinators when you interview. It is best to get your aspirations up front. Your site coordinator will respect that forthrightness.

Bang the Drum! The Publicdrum!
We are launching a series of community calendars as part of our development of a more efficient way to distribute event data. One is geographically focused on the Greater Lansing area and the other is topic centered and will be created in cooperation with Artserve Michigan.
We are a Michigan based non profit cooperative of publishers, communities and organizations working to overcome the barriers to participation that keep people with events from effectively reaching the public.
We are looking for someone to work with individual organizations - many of them very small - to help them understand and participate in community calendaring. The candidate would initially transcribe the organization's events into our web form and assist them in using our automated calendars, widgets and community calendar tools.
The initiative has two objectives; introduce the concept to target users and facilitate participation, and to help us understand and rectify any problems in our services or presentation - or suggest features we should offer.
More information about us is at http://publicdrum.org
