A look back at last week’s Etiquette Dinner! ✨

Students had the opportunity to enjoy an evening of connection, professional development, and meaningful conversation while learning the importance of dining etiquette and networking in a professional setting. From practicing proper table manners to building confidence in social and professional environments, the evening was a valuable experience for involved.

We're excited to spotlight Anna Bennett who completed an internship at Henderson County UK Cooperative Extension!

During the summer, Anna gained valuable experience working alongside agents in 4-H, Agriculture and Natural Resources, Horticulture, and Family Consumer Sciences. Some highlights included attending the 4-H Teen Conference, participating in site visits with agriculture and horticulture agents, and assisting with youth and family consumer science programs. One of the most rewarding parts of the internship was developing Adulting 101, a four-workshop program designed to prepare young adults for real-world experiences. Through assisting with various programs, Anna learned how to plan, market, and manage a project from start to finish. Anna also had the opportunity to present Adulting 101 at the end-of-summer intern showcase!

We're proud to Anna taking initiative, developing valuable professional skills, and creating programs that make a difference in her communities.

Congratulations on a successful internship experience! We can't wait to see where your career journey takes you next!

We’re excited to spotlight Paige Rakestraw who completed an internship at Pennyrile Animal Clinic in Madisonville, Kentucky!

During the internship, she gained valuable insight into the veterinary field by shadowing a veterinarian and observing daily clinic operations. She also had the opportunity to assist with tasks such as heartworm testing, nail trims, and animal restraint, gaining hands-on experience and a deeper understanding of veterinary care.

We’re proud of Paige for taking the initiative to explore her career interests, gain practical experience, and learn more about the important work veterinarians do to keep animals healthy!

Congratulations on a great internship experience! We can’t wait to see where your career journey takes you next!
