What is an internship?
An internship is a work-based learning experience where a student participates in the daily operations of a work site under the direct supervision of a business mentor. The internship provides a realistic environment within which a student intern learns about a particular industry or occupation and applies knowledge and skills learned in the classroom.
The work experience should contribute to the student's career pathway helping the student to narrow their career choices. Internships can be paid or unpaid and can be compensated in various manners.
Benefits of an internship
Internship programs allow students to connect what they are learning in the classroom in a real world setting. Students will be able to see a clear connection between school and work. Internships also allow student to explore the workplace related to their career pathway. Internships are also a great way to build experience, build a resume, and create a professional network.
