Inland Seas Great Lakes Education Internships

Inland Seas Education Association is seeking two individuals for Great Lakes Education Intern positions, to help with ship and shore programming April 28 – August 15, 2025.

ISEA is a non-profit that teaches people about science and stewardship of the Great Lakes, on sailing vessels and outdoor classrooms. Applicants will be leading science programs for learners of all ages, and while previous sailing experience for applicants is not necessary, much of the education programs will be provided onboard our traditionally rigged schooners.

Programs can be both day sails around Grand Traverse Bay, as well as multi-day sails to away ports such as Detroit, MI, or Duluth, MN. The ideal candidate is a strong communicator and team player, with enthusiasm for teaching about environmental science and the Great Lakes. Early career professionals and people looking to transition into environmental education are encouraged to apply.

Room and board is available on a needs basis. To read the full position description, please click here.

Applications will be considered on a rolling basis, until end-of-day February 9, 2025. Apply by email with resume and letter of interest.
