Welcome to the HAPP Internship Orientation For students enrolling in happ 470 in spring 2019

Getting Ready for the Internship Congratulations! You are on your way to enrolling in HAPP 470! This presentation contains all of the information that you will need to complete your online Student Information Sheet. At the conclusion of this session, please go to the Internship Placement Tracking website at www.runipt.com to update your Student Detail page and Student Information Sheet – including your resume and letter of introduction. Please Note: Only complete packages will be processed. Please make sure that you are eligible for HAPP 470 and that your online information is complete by using the checklist below: _____ Student Detail Page (do not include a picture)   _____ Student Information Sheet _____ Current Approved Resume _____ Letter of Introduction

Internship Process – Timeline for Spring 2019 Late September – Early October The Internship Coordinator meets with interested rising seniors and seniors who are planning to enroll in HAPP 470 in the Spring semester via posted Internship Orientation sessions. During these sessions, students learn the steps in the internship process, receive instructions, and learn about the requirements of the internship course. Attendance at one of the sessions is required for enrollment in the internship course. Early October Students complete the Student Information sheet, draft a resume, and draft a letter of introduction. Materials must be submitted by October 15. Failure to submit a complete package may result in a delay in enrollment in HAPP 470. Late October-Mid November Students’ materials are reviewed for enrollment eligibility. Students meet individually with the Internship Coordinator to review their applications, discuss interests and learning needs, and identify possible internship sites. Student interests will be considered and there will be a significant attempt to match students with desired and appropriate settings.

Internship Process – Timeline (cont.) Mid-October – Mid-December Students are provided with recommendations for potential  internship sites. Students receive a recommendations letter via email.  The letter asks students to arrange an interview with prospective preceptors. Prospective preceptors are simultaneously sent letters via email informing them of the student(s) being recommended.  The preceptor is also sent a copy of the potential student’s resume and the student’s letter of introduction. Interviews occur to provide students and preceptors the opportu­ni­ty to meet, discuss the kinds of assignments and learning experiences offered by the agency, and to clarify expectations. After the interview, the student should contact the Internship Coordinator to share thoughts about the experience. The student should also send a thank you to the prospective preceptor. Students are also encouraged to contact the Internship Coordinator after the inter­view if they have any problems or reser­ vations regarding the potential internship site. The Internship Coordinator may also request that the preceptor, as a representative of the internship site, completes the Internship Contract. All internships are required to be 208 hours and to be in accordance with start and end of semester dates.

Timeline for Spring 2019 Internships Students work on documentation – through early October All documentation is due October 15 Materials are reviewed – mid/late October Students meet with Internship Coordinator – mid-October/mid- November Interviews and meetings with Preceptors – mid-October through mid-December Students and Preceptors finalize the internship plan – through January 2019

Calendar Approximately 16 hours per week for a total of 208 hours during the semester. Schedules are negotiated with the preceptor. Hours do not begin until the first day onsite and during the semester of enrollment. Hours are not earned if the agency is closed (snow days, holidays, etc.). All students are required to remain at their internship site throughout the entire semester. Even if hours are complete, students must work at the agency until the last day of the semester.

Resume Guidelines and Tips The primary purpose of the pre-internship resume is for you to introduce yourself to potential future preceptors. It is important that your resume be well-written and free of grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors. When writing a resume action verbs are needed to describe work/volunteer experience. If you would like help locating action verbs, please refer to the following link: http://www.quintcareers.com/action_skills.html   The average review is 15-30 seconds Resume should be no longer than one page Margins should be no more than one inch Do not use fancy fonts; fonts should be 10.5 – 12 Use consistent formatting for headings and dates Do not use sentence or paragraph formatting Limit use of abbreviations Do not lie, exaggerate or use clichés (i.e., “out of the box thinker”) Put your actual GPA; do not round up Leave out information about marital status, gender, height, weight, or health Do not list references PROOF READ YOUR RESUME

Sample Resume Format

Letter of Introduction and Tips This letter introduces you to a potential preceptor and is their first impression of you. This letter allows you to go in-depth about important experiences/skills and relate them to expertise needed in the field. It is important that the letter is well written as it provides a sample of your writing skills and shows the preceptor that your are invested in demonstrating your interest and commitment to your field of study. The letter of introduction should: Be no more than one single spaced page Avoid redundancy and wordiness Use the same paper as your resume (in case you are asked to bring a paper copy to an interview) Not have any TYPOS Sign your name in ink between your close and typed name Be given to friends and/or colleagues for proofreading or suggestions Be PROOFREAD after a few hours or days (improve sentences, grammar, typos)

Letter of Introduction Template Your Name Your Complete Address City, State Zip Date   This letter of introduction is specifically designed to be used for your internship and may be sent directly to prospective preceptors. Please consider other resources for future cover letters. Since you do not know where you will be accepted for an internship, broadly address your interests in the field and your skill set. Keep your discussions concise! Dear Prospective Preceptor: I am currently enrolled in the undergraduate Health Administration and Policy Program at University of Maryland, Baltimore County. There are several areas of study in our program and the track that I have focused on is ____________ because ________________. I am hoping that the internship is, for me, a way to increase my competency through using the knowledge and skills that I have gathered while at UMBC so that I can learn firsthand what it is like to put theory into practice. I am excited to have the opportunity to put what I have learned to work. My interest in __________________ stems from ____________________, and as I have continued my education in this area, I have found ____________________________. (What have you learned? Discuss here.) (What are your career goals? Discuss here.) (What do you bring to the table that is unique? Discuss here.) I would be honored to be able to expand on and practice the concepts, instruction, and principles that I have gathered through my academic career by completing an internship with your institution. I look forward to enhancing and applying the skills I have learned, while attaining new ones. Enclosed, you will find my resume. I appreciate the time you have taken to consider me for a position with your agency, and look forward to meeting you soon. Sincerely, Your signature Your name
