Bonner Foundation Senior Intern Webinar Series
2017-18
This year, the Bonner Foundation is excited to announce the launch of the Bonner Senior Intern Webinar Series! This series is made up of five one-hour sessions within the 2017-18 academic year, each targeting a different aspect of the Senior Intern role and responsibilities. The foundation of the webinar content comes from gaps within Bonner Foundation support for student leaders, as well as from targeted asks from current Senior Interns about what support would be most beneficial to them.
Approximately two weeks before each webinar is to take place, the Bonner Foundation will announce the time, date, and sign-up information to the Bonner network via the BWBRS Weekly Update, social media, and Senior Intern Listserv. Anyone may sign up to be a part of the webinar - senior interns, junior interns, Bonner alumni, staff, campus peers. For individuals who are unable to join the webinar, each session is recorded and all materials (slides, handouts, etc.) are posted on the Bonner wiki for future reference. They will be posted on the Senior Intern Page and on this page, below.
