The WALT DISNEY WORLD Recreation INTERNSHIP Program is geared towards day-to-day operations learning at Disney's Typhoon Lagoon or Disney's Blizzard Beach. This INTERNSHIP allows the student an opportunity to develop professional and personal skills by working in an environment that is both dynamic and challenging. This program expands the learning experience through continued education and professional growth within the WALT DISNEY WORLD environment.

The discipline locations include, but are not limited to Guest services, Custodial, Lifeguard, Lifeguard Coordinator, Rentals/Cashier, Merchandise, Food & Beverage, and Management Shadow Training. In addition, Interns will have 8 hours per week dedicated to research, in-class studies, job shadow opportunities, and cross-utilization experiences. For the last 3-4 months, the intern will train with the leadership team to learn how to manage day-to-day operations of a water park. Interns are responsible for creating a portfolio which will be presented to the Recreation Division Committee during the final month of the INTERNSHIP.
