An internship with Three Rivers Park District is an in-depth, supervised, practical work experience. It is an opportunity for students to use and test knowledge developed in a formal educational program to gain first-hand work experience in a professional setting. Our goal is to provide opportunities for Three Rivers Park District to contribute to the quality of professional leadership in the parks and recreation profession.
