Ohio Lt. Governor Jon Husted, who serves as Director of the Governor’s Office of Workforce Transformation, recently announced that the High School Tech Internship program is now open for Ohio students to enroll. The goal of the program is to provide Ohio businesses with the tech talent they need while providing students with valuable work experience at an early age.
Interns will perform duties similar to what is expected of an entry-level employee in technology roles that focus on software development, data, cloud, and IT infrastructure, cybersecurity, broadband/5G, advanced mobility, and other tech-focused roles.
Ohio employers hosting interns will be reimbursed up to 100 percent of the wages paid to interns (up to $5,000 per intern). Employers are also eligible to earn bonuses for each student who earns certain industry-recognized credentials.
Interested businesses who would like to partner with the Knox County Career Center (KCCC) can reach out to Beth Marhefka, KCCC’s Work-Based Learning & Career Development Coordinator, by email at bmarhefka@knoxcc.org or by phone at (740) 397-5820 x2706.
KCCC’s tech-related programs include CollegeU-Business, Computer Network Technology, Digital Media & Software Development, and Precision Machining.
KCCC would like to thank the following businesses and schools for partnering with us and hosting 11 High School Tech Internship students in 2023: Ariel Corporation, Danville Local Schools, FT Precision, Groshong Software Services, LLC, and Schafer Driveline.
