The Power of Communication in Internship Experiences Communication is a skill that many teens find challenging, yet it’s one of the most critical for success in any career. That’s why it’s a core focus of our Career Internship Program at Naperville District 203. Through their internships, students collaborate with supervisors to tackle real-world projects. Afterward, we take time to unpack cross-sector competencies, like communication, through meaningful reflection. Both students and supervisors share insights about strengths, challenges, and areas for growth. It’s no surprise that employers frequently cite communication as a top challenge for new hires. That’s why we prioritize giving our students authentic opportunities to develop and practice this skill. By the end of their internships, our students not only grow in their ability to communicate effectively—they gain confidence, build connections, and experience personal transformation. 💬 Communication isn’t just a skill—it’s a game-changer.
