🍂 Fall Interns – Let’s Get Ready!

The fall semester is just around the corner—most California colleges and universities begin classes in late August to early September. If your park is interested in hosting an interpretive intern, now is the perfect time to get started!

California State Parks has partnered with University Enterprises, Inc. (UEI) to simplify the hiring process and connect parks with a diverse pool of motivated student interns. Through this partnership, you’ll gain access to candidates from hundreds of colleges and universities across California and the nation—ready to support your interpretive programming and make an impact.

📩 Interested?
Reach out to Joshua.Zafarmand@parks.ca.gov to learn how your park can take advantage of this opportunity in time for fall!

IMPORTANT – Please contact Josh directly rather than reach out to UEI. He will assist in setting up accounts and review all steps of the hiring and onboarding process with staff.
