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

Qualifications

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.”

Research and Motivate for the MOA and MOPAC! $
MICHIGAN OSTEOPATHIC ASSOCIATION (MOA)
The MOA is the professional association of the osteopathic profession in Michigan. MOA is the largest state osteopathic association in the country with approximately 5,400 members. We work very closely with the MSU College of Osteopathic Medicine (MSUCOM). We are involved in helping our members in many areas but for this position the focus will be in the public relations, public policy and political arenas. The MOA is seeking an intern to work 80 hours over the Fall Semester. This internship can be done for school credit and a stipend of $800 will be paid at the end of the assignment. This internship will allow the successful candidate to work independently assisting the MOA in marketing and growing its political action committee, MOPAC. We would prefer a student with a car as an occasional trip to our office in Okemos may be required.
Typical duties will involve research about campaign and political action committee donations as reported to the MI Secretary of State. Research on political news of interest to physicians will also be required. Taking the research results and then turning that information into emails and other materials that will motivate more osteopathic physicians to contribute to MOPAC. This is a bi-partisan position and what we want is someone who can help us drive more of our members to become active contributors to MOPAC. The current economic conditions in Michigan have taken a toll on our contributions and we need to build up our balance for the 2010 election year campaigns.
Interested applicants should submit a resume, 2 writing samples and an explanation of why they would be the perfect person for this position to:
