Overview
The Center for Youth & College Education (CYCE) offers a variety of opportunities to explore careers in healthcare.
At the classroom level, teachers and their students can participate in Connected Career Rounds, live televised sessions that focus on a different healthcare topic every other week between October and March and exposes learners to numerous careers in healthcare. Educators have the opportunity to request speakers through our Speakers Bureau as well as participate in field trips facilitated by Cleveland Clinic caregivers.
At an individual level, students can participate in paid summer internships that prepare them for a career in clinical, nonclinical and advanced technology settings. Through the Adult and Student Pathways programs, participants embark on a path that could directly lead to employment or certification.
We look forward to placing students in shadowing experiences and working with partner organizations to advance the learning of K-12, college and adult students.
Engagement and Belonging Resources
The Center for Youth & College Education and Cleveland Clinic are committed to valuing all people throughout our organization. A welcoming and supportive environment for students and staff, and care for our patients, while respecting their unique background, values and care needs, are essential to fulfilling our vision to be the best place for care anywhere and the best place to work in healthcare. We welcome students from all backgrounds.
