The Glynn County School System and the Golden Isles Chamber of Commerce have partnered together to create an excellent externship program that offers a unique professional development opportunity for education professionals to explore in-demand careers in our community and apply what they learned to their lesson plans. 
 

We are partnering with the Chamber of Commerce again this year on this invaluable experience. The Connect Glynn Educator Externship Academy is designed for educators to observe and network with local industry partners while gaining real-world industry experience from a number of the major employers in Glynn County.
 

The externship experience will provide 20 GCSS educators with three full working days onsite in a Golden Isles area local industry partner this fall. During this program, educators will receive hands-on working experience and opportunities to observe several different aspects of business techniques and processes.
 

Interested in applying? View this short video to hear from a past participant and visit the Externship Application for more information and to complete the application.  Applications for the next Externship Cohort must be submitted by September 12, 2025.
