Youth Corps Community Internship
Gain on-the-job training opportunities in the social and community sector
Looking for Internship opportunities with our Community Partners?
Our Youth Corps Community Internship (YCCI) is a 5-6 month developmental programme where youths will not only intern with one of Youth Corps Community Partners in the community and social sector but also attend Skills Training, Career Explorations, Learning Journeys and also serve the community. This programme enables youths to continue their development through on-the-job-training and learning experiences within the sector and contribute back to society.
YCCI (Leaders Track) is a new 6-month leadership development programme for youth interested in becoming community leaders. Throughout the programme, participants will gain hands-on experience through internships with Community Partners, receive specialised leadership training, and be guided by dedicated staff and mentors. Upon completion, youths will be conferred as Youth Corps Leaders.
