About the program
This opportunity will provide Coast Guard men and women (retiring, RELAD, SELRES mbrs) who meet basic eligibility criteria and are interested in teaching and mentoring high school students in the areas of citizenship, community service, responsibility, and self-discipline, the opportunity to observe and assist with maritime science instruction as a CGJROTC Instructor intern. CGJROTC Instructor Interns serve as role models to students, instilling citizenship, responsibility, and a deep appreciation for the Coast Guard and service to our nation. The program is designed as a 21-26 week, student-teaching-like internship, but the applicant and host unit instructor can modify the internship length, as the situation warrants. This position is in-person and requires the applicant to live within a commutable distance from the school. Serving as a CGJROTC Instructor Intern presents challenging but fulfilling vocational opportunities for Coast Guard retirees, veterans, and reservists. The goal of successful completion of the internship is to obtain a CGJROTC Instructor Certification.
