Overview

A good internship gives students real work and clear support, and gives the employer a fair chance to see who would make a strong hire. This template sets out the programme in seven pages: goals and measures, recruitment, projects, supervision standards, an evaluation scorecard and a make it yours guide. Each page names owners and dates, so supervisors know what they must do and when.

The sample follows a fictional summer cohort of 12 interns at Millrace Logistics, with 11 of 12 projects completed, a 4.6 out of 5 satisfaction score and five offers. Replace the cohort size, projects, pay, dates and contacts with your own, and check the pay and status rules where you operate before any offer goes out.

Useful for

  • A programme owner planning a summer cohort of 12 interns
  • A supervisor preparing project briefs and review dates for an intake
  • An HR team setting up a work experience week for school pupils
