Youth Educational Programs
Competition for college admittance requires students
to go beyond the basics. PVNET offers a variety of programs for
both the pre and post college student.
The PVNET’s Intern program offers the student an opportunity
to support their community while learning computer and leadership
skills. Many of PVNET’s students have gone on to significant
careers in computer technology. Interns have a choice to work in
four areas, web design, animation, GIS and computer hardware.
Interns will be able to develop many related skills in the course
of their activities such as in marketing and communications while
having the opportunity to meet community leaders.
