These experiences may include conducting research; data analysis; writing, editing, using Internet applications and social media; participating in and assisting with partnership events, meetings, and policy forums; visits to Capitol Hill; and other appropriate program-related activities.
The NEA partners with institutions of higher education, intern programs, and other organizations to identify interns - generally juniors, seniors, recent college graduates (up to 18 months), or graduate students - who are interested in public education policy and education issues.

The group activities may include participation in interviews with the NEA President and Executive Director, and organizational leadership and staff, observing NEA events such as Representative Assembly events, Board meetings or cross Center/department events, and participating in policy forums, organizing or lobbying activities or organized partner or Intern events in the Washington DC Metropolitan area, such as Washington DC Intern Week.

• Development of training for staff
• Marketing in-house professional development through Percipio LMS

The intern will also focus on general data analytics for staff development, employee development, and engagement.
Additionally, interns will learn about the NEA, its role in public education, issues affecting NEA members at the national, state, and local level, and advocacy strategies to support members and the students they serve.
