Opening doors

We all know that a chance to get a foot in the door is often the first step towards success in any field. Today’s students know that internships can help them get a good look at a particular profession, and give them a chance to focus their career interests. They also know that internships can offer them a great opportunity to gain valuable work experience and contacts.

Opportunities for advancement...

Our Next Generation Internships can help these students get the experience they need, by matching their academic interests and career pursuits with internship opportunities and mentoring possibilities in a variety of fields and settings.

 

These opportunities can range from one-day, one-on-one “shadowing” opportunities — where a student “shadows” or closely follows a leader or expert in a particular field, during a typical day of work — to one-month or longer summer internships.

...through a global network

Our program offers students access to these opportunities through a network of internship hosts and sponsors committed to mentoring the next generation. Typically conducted at a sponsor or mentor’s place of work or business, the internships they offer through our programs are free and open to students from our community with clearly expressed academic or professional interests, and a declared interest in leading through service and work.

 

By helping students take advantage of these opportunities, we hope to inspire in them a lifelong pursuit of excellence, and encourage them to engage themselves more deeply in their communities, through service and leadership.
