ANN FITZGERALD FLEMER COLLEGE MENTORSHIP PROGRAM (INTERNSHIP)

MTC is excited to announce its Ann Fitzgerald Flemer College Mentorship Program for the summer of 2025 (formerly known as the Pathways to Government College Internship Program). Ann Fitzgerald Flemer was the former MTC Deputy Executive Director who began her 32-year career at MTC as a college intern herself in 1982. Over the following decades, she became a cherished mentor to an entire generation of leaders at MTC and at many of our partner agencies. MTC is proud to name the College Mentorship Program after Deputy Executive Director Flemer, honoring her memory of mentorship and service.

 

The Program provides students/mentees with the opportunity to gain professional work experience in business operations, planning, budget and financial planning and analysis, treasury and revenue, funding policy, estuary, legislation and public affairs, regional network management and sustainable mobility and operations.

 

For the summer of 2025, students/mentees will have the opportunity to work remotely as well as in the office full-time for eight weeks from Monday, June 9, 2025 through Friday, August 1, 2025. Mentees will have job assignments and a dedicated mentor who will help develop and guide them in their overall career interests and provide real-life work experience of what it is like to work for a regional government agency.
