Subject: School Communication to Send- Spanish Immersion Internship 2019

Good Afternoon Dean and esteemed faculty,

I wanted to let you know about an exciting summer internship opportunity we have to offer 2021 & 2022 pharmacy interns for the next coming summer in 2019. It is a paid Spanish Immersion Internship that is held between June- August, with flexibility for 8-10 weeks long, and it is available in various cities. Please see below for those markets and a brief description of the internship. You may be aware that the Hispanic population is growing at an incredible amount throughout the United States. CVS Health is proud to be able to provide an experience for students in specific Hispanic dominant stores/markets where they can learn about specific disease states those patients may have, be exposed to medical terminology in Spanish, and counsel patients. Fluency in Spanish is not mandatory for interns to apply.

We have made the start and end dates more flexible for students after receiving feedback from several schools regarding dates for summer IPPE rotations, and school schedules that conflict with our internship dates.

Can you please forward this information below out to your current P1 (2022) & P2 (2021) interns? We are so excited to be able to provide this unique opportunity. Please let me know if you have any questions. I greatly appreciate your partnership.
