Internships

Dream It Do It helps facilitate the placement of students into internships within the manufacturing setting. An internship is designed to be a professional learning experience that offers meaningful, practical work related to a student’s career interest. An internship gives a student the opportunity for career exploration and development, and to learn new skills. It offers the employer the opportunity to bring new ideas and energy into the workplace, develop talent and potentially build a pipeline for future full-time employees. A quality internship:

• Consists of a part-time or full-time work schedule that includes no more than 25% clerical or administrative duties.

• Provides a clear job/project description for the work experience.

• Orients the student to the organization, its culture and proposed work assignment(s).

• Helps the student develop and achieve learning goals.

• Offers regular feedback to the student intern.
