During the summer, Interns are trained to support Wilderness Program courses. Interns will be expected to work collaboratively to prepare for, implement/facilitate, and evaluate the courses. Courses can range from one to fourteen days and may be held at our wilderness site or in a mobile format (camping, canoeing, or rafting trips in both Colorado and Utah). Interns will become familiar with program activities and the adaptation opportunities that include hiking, canoeing, kayaking, zip-lining, climbing, white-water rafting, and more.
Participants of the Wilderness Program include people of all ages and abilities. BOEC serves children with sensory processing disorders, courses for youth or adults with visual impairments, programs for historically disadvantaged youth, adults with traumatic brain injuries, children with hemophilia, people with spinal cord injuries, adults with multiple sclerosis, and many others within the full spectrum of disability and diagnosis.
Interns are involved with course delivery from beginning to end. Interns are support staff and will not manage a course without the support and supervision of our experienced Course Directors and Instructors. Interns are not meant to be the sole risk managers. Even for those interns who have experience, interns will always be supported by paid staff especially in mitigating risk throughout our programming.
Lastly, the interns play a pivotal role in creating a positive experience for all individuals who assist in the BOEC enacting it’s mission. Therefore, interns will help to support, empower, and engage with BOEC staff, volunteers, participants, and other interns.
All interns must be twenty-one years of age, have current First Aid and CPR certifications, ability to lift 50lbs, health insurance coverage, and the ability to commit to the entire season. Ideal candidate is self-motivated, takes initiative, some experience in our programming areas, and some experience working with people with disabilities and special needs. All interns must have a strong sense of hard work, flexibility, a love of the outdoors, an open mind, and a love for working with people.
