One-year internship at the Fachoberschule Soziales

In cooperation with the Department of Schools and Education and the schools of the Waldeck-Frankenberg district, it is possible to complete the specialized social work internship. An application is to be sent directly to the school in question.



School internship

The district of Waldeck-Frankenberg awards internships for students. Among other things, short-term internships as part of the vocational preparation of the various school types or simply for their own career orientation during the school vacations. Many areas of the administration are available for this purpose. Whether it will end up being an insight into the activities of the Social Affairs Department, the Building Department or the Transportation Department (or another of the many departments of the building) depends entirely on the interests of the applicant and can also be communicated to the district in the application.


Student internship

The district offers internships for students in a wide variety of fields. Whether studying public administration, conservation, environmental protection, social work or another field. The district administration offers many opportunities for a student internship, e.g. for the BPS I or the recognition internship as part of the social work studies.


Our intern Pia says about the annual internship:

"I decided to do an internship with the Waldeck-Frankenberg district because I was very interested in the work processes in a public authority. The work in the youth department is very varied. So far, I have been assigned to different areas and have thus already gained a good insight into the work that has to be done on a daily basis. I like the internship very much and I can imagine an apprenticeship as an administrative assistant at the district very well for my future. Therefore, I will also apply for an apprenticeship."
