The internship committee is a small group of five to eight people, meeting monthly (or every other month in the case of a concurrent internship) with the intern, who have agreed to develop a supportive relationship with the intern. You will learn, grow and struggle together as you help each other develop your unique ministry<\/p>\n
The purpose and role of the internship committee is unique as part of the Formation Team (more information on the Formation Team is available in the Internship Committee Handbook).<\/p>\n
The Committee offers the student intern feedback and perspective from someone in the community as they experience the intern\u2019s presence, ministry, and leadership.<\/p>\n
The committee\u2019s purpose includes:<\/p>\n
It is our prayer that you and your student intern will learn with and from each other, and that the grace, hope, and joy of the Gospel is woven in and through your work together!<\/p>\n
The midpoint and final evaluations ask the same questions at two different points during the internship. This allows interns, supervisors, and internship committees to mark the intern\u2019s progress and growth.<\/p>\n
Supervisors and committee chairs must complete the forms online and print copies for themselves.<\/p>\n
Internship committees also participate in the evaluation process. The committee chair is responsible for submitting the online evaluation form on behalf of the committee. However, the entire committee is expected to participate in the evaluation process by giving the chair their opinions on the evaluation questions. The evaluation questions are available for review in the Appendix of the Internship Committee Handbook.<\/p>\n
