Internship

​The internship shall be a structured educational experience and may be paid or unpaid. The internship course syllabus and outline shall clearly state internship activities, anticipated outcomes, and the process of evaluation.

​The purpose of the internship experience is to enhance the relationship between theory and practice. The process of conducting an internship is as follows:

1. The instruction shall be supervised by a credentialed professional who will provide periodic site visitation.
   
2. An internship experience requires that a learning plan, developed for the student by the major program instructor and training sponsor, be provided to the student.
   
3. The training sponsor shall evaluate each intern on technical knowledge and job performance, as well as offer input in the instructor’s evaluation of the intern.
   
4. A pass/fail grade shall be recorded for each student who participates in an internship experience based on the grading policy and procedure of the College.
   
5. All internship experiences require a memorandum of agreement or contract between the College and training sponsor.
