This spring, Oceans of Fun was honored to accept the 2016  “Outstanding Internship Program” Award from the Milwaukee Area College Internship Consortium (MACIC)! 

Each year, MACIC recognizes local and state-wide internship programs that demonstrate best practices and exceptional mentorship to students pursuing work related experience.

Entering the field of marine mammal care and training can be difficult without hands-on experience.  To that end, Oceans of Fun has created an Internship Program that educates college students who are pursuing careers in Biology, Marine Biology, Psychology, Animal Behavior, Oceanography, Ecology, Education, and Communication.  Students learn about animal diets, facility care, animal training, and assist the staff in educating the public about how to care for the environment.

Oceans of Fun is honored to accept this award on behalf of our internship program. We are thrilled to play a role in giving interns at our company the opportunity to develop professionally and to expand their knowledge in the field of animal care.
