Subject: Web builder - paid internship with National Park Service
Description:
The position will be a flexible, part-time, paid internship. The U.S.
National Park Service (NPS) National Capital Region (NCR), Office of Natural
Resources and Science (NRS) Urban Ecology Research Learning Alliance (UERLA)
is seeking a student with a background in website building within content
management system (CMS). Familiarity with html, image editing software, and
digital accessibility per Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act is helpful
but not required. The intern must be able to pass a security background check
for federal computer use and complete required training in using the NPS CMS
Commonspot. The intern will create inventories of existing websites, make
recommendations for modifications and updates to these sites, and create new
pages using the NPS CMS. All web building will occur within this CMS which
predetermines many of the parameters as well as the style and graphic
identity of pages that can be created, yet there is still room for elegant
solutions within CMS constraints. The intern may also assist with cataloging
and improving access to scientific and scholarly reports and related products
that were produced by and for the National Parks of the National Capital
Region. We anticipate that the internship will begin in September of 2019 and
continue through May of 2020 as funding and student interest allow. Students
must be enrolled in a degree program for the duration of the internship. The
intern should have access to dependable transportation and be able to
navigate to NCR NPS properties.
