The program is set up in four separate tracks. Each track is designed for interns who wish learn more about the areas above and gain as much hands-on experience as possible. Regardless of which track the intern is interested in, the intern will begin with a one to three week overview period of each position related to the track he/she chooses. At the end of the overview period, the intern will meet with professionals to hear which two or three areas he/she is interested in focusing on. The remainder of the internship will encompass the intern’s training in the interested areas.

The program over all is 12 to 16 weeks depending on the school and length of semester. All interns are required to work a minimum of 12 hours per week. We are very flexible with the intern’s schedule because the intern may be working at another job or is taking a course or two.
