The Cappie L Stanley Public Health Quality Improvement Internship, sponsored by CPHQ, is a paid internship to develop improvement leaders within the public health workforce. The target audience is undergraduates and graduate students interested in  a career in public health as well as members of the current public health workforce interested in transitioning to a  career focusing on quality improvement. The internship will last 8-10 weeks over the 2013 summer months, with flexible start and end dates.

The internship will consist of mentored experiential learning at CPHQ guided by an intern's personal learning plan that is customized to the intern’s specific learning and career goals. In addition to working on one or more projects at CPHQ, each intern will also learn from public health experts and spend one week working on a brief project in a local health department.
