Applications for the 2021-2022 program year will be accepted beginning April 23, 2021, through May 31, 2021. Originally started in 2006, 2021 marks the the 15th year the regional internship program has been providing practical, on-the-job experience to interested students, and a talent pipeline of potential candidates to the water/wastewater industry. Interns are placed with our member agencies and partners for four (4) eight-week rotations through Water Treatment, Wastewater Treatment, System Operations, and System Maintenance, providing the opportunity to learn more about the field of water, while showcasing their skills, talents, and knowledge to potential employers. The future remains bright for students looking to become leaders in the region's water industry. Together, we continue to build the #talentpipeline for the next generation.
