Short Term Goals/Priorities: 1) Clearly communicate the differences and detailed processes related to internships, apprenticeships and funding them; 2) As much as we can with the schools, monitor work-based experiences (do-it-yourself internships) or voting to not provide gap funding for them; 3) Do not delay major donor fundraising, which is all relationship-based and time intensive; and 4) Leverage the turnkey aspects of processes and procedures implemented in 2015, enjoying the efficiencies that resulted.
