Literacy Education Intern

Are you a current undergraduate student looking for an exciting summer opportunity? Savvas Learning Company is seeking bright, motivated undergraduate students to join us for our dynamic 8-week Product Development Internship in Northbrook, IL. You will join us for eight weeks and gain valuable experience within the educational publishing industry.

Over the summer, participants will receive guidance from top teams in the K-12 education field, work on real-life business projects, attend weekly informational sessions to learn about other business areas, network with other students, attend off-site events, and finally, present a project to Savvas' senior leaders at the end of the summer to showcase the impact you've made on our business.

As an Editorial Intern, you will use your educational background and on-the-job training to assist in the development process for your assigned content area to create innovative instructional materials for use in K-12 schools. Our Interns own have manageable assignments, support diverse programs, experience a variety of editorial tasks, and contribute meaningfully to the development of K-12 educational materials.

Intern positions are full-time opportunities, 40 hours per week, requiring a hybrid work schedule with two (2) days onsite at our Northbrook, IL office. You'll typically be on-site on Wednesdays and another day as determined by you and your mentor during the first week of the program.
