Position Overview: INIE’s Nonprofit Management Volunteer Internship Program provides participants with an unparalleled opportunity to acquire administrative experience while gaining valuable insight into the nonprofit sector.

Position Duties: A Special Events intern is responsible for coordinating and managing INIE events. This includes scheduling and confirming locations and facilitators, developing event themes and activities to be executed, publicizing events on social media and public calendars, and capturing and inputting pertinent event data like evaluation scores, number of attendees, and total revenue.

  • Currently enrolled in a college or university
  • Must be in good academic standing
  • Proven experience in event management encouraged
  • Strong communication skills
  • Highly organized
