Emerging Leaders Program

The Emerging Leaders Program (ELP) is designed to recruit high potential employees and provide fast track development highlighting leadership and business skills through experiential learning and training. This program is one of the recruitment tools used by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to hire exceptional interns with a variety of backgrounds for the effective analysis and execution of our programs. The program recruits for GS-9 level positions in the following career tracks: Administrative, Information Technology, Public Health, Scientific, and Social Science. Please note: not all career tracks recruit each year.

The program is intended to provide centralized recruitment and management, and rotations within the Operating Divisions (OPDIVs) of the Department. Formal training and leadership development are the foundation of this two-year internship, resulting in a cadre of well-trained, well-qualified employees for leadership roles in the Department of Health and Human Services.
