Students
The deliverable will vary depending on the scope of the project. The student should complete a minimum of 40-50 hours with your organization.
Project Examples
Requirements
Students can complete a substantial project for your organization over the placement period. We suggest providing a starting project, but as the placement goes on there may be other duties or projects the student is asked to complete as well. Providing a central project creates structure for the internship, and gives the student a tangible goal.
