Globe Star mentors future professionals by offering internships through its Counseling Center that has worked with bachelor, master and doctoral level students from Loyola University of Chicago, Purdue University, Indiana University, Valparaiso University and Grace College.
The Center is committed to providing quality training for students in social work, communications, counseling, PsyD programs and other human services-related fields.
Practicum student training benefits both the student and their educational or career center, and also the mentoring programs at Globe Star.
Mentoring and supervising student interns creates the welcomed opportunity for Globe Star to participate in the practicum training of future professionals, offering real life challenges and guidance that strengthens well-trained and grounded students.
The Internship Program at Globe Star provides practicum opportunities for the career-minded student who strives to make an invaluable contribution to the community and to their profession.
Placement preference is given to academic institutions with well structured student training programs. Placements in the Practicum Training Program are individually tailored to meet the learning and career goals of the student, working together with objectives established by the Globe Star Counseling Center and the student’s academic institution. Tasks designed to integrate an intern’s strengths and possibilities with professional goals are assigned by the student’s supervisor in conjunction with the student’s academic requirements.
The Counseling Center invites new relationships with schools and interested students from qualified graduate programs. CONTACT US to learn more about our internship program.
“Working with Globe Star has been a great experience. From the beginning, I was welcomed with open arms and was given anything that I needed for my class.
Learning about gentle teaching has probably been the most rewarding experience for me. The idea of gentle teaching makes so much sense to me and I think it should be implemented in classrooms as well as the workplace, because it fosters an atmosphere of equality and respect among all people.
All of the workers at Globe Star, from the caregivers to office staff, have been more than willing to help me as well. All in all, I have had nothing but good times working with the Globe Star family and I want to thank everyone for their cooperation!”
