college/university PRACTICUM/ intern STUDENTs

North East works with numerous accredited universities and colleges in the placement of practicum and intern students. The requirements of these placements are typically long term in nature. Students who wish to complete their course work with North East should submit an online student application. The university coordinator should submit an official request in writing to the Human Resources Specialist of Staff Development as well as the corresponding NEISD department coordinator.  The request should list details of the placement and may be emailed or mailed on the institution’s official letterhead to NEISD at 8961 Tesoro Drive Suite 200. For further information, please contact the Human Resources Specialist, Davilyn Tate, at dtate2@neisd.net or 210-407-0479.
