Over the 2019-2020 academic year, the Dahdaleh Institute worked with exceptional students through our Trainee Program, which is founded in an experiential education approach. Students completed program practicums with us, were hired through the Research at York program, or volunteered.
Congratulations and thank you to all the trainees for jobs well done!
