What is an Internship?
A student internship is an unpaid, career-focused experience during which students become directly involved in the workplace. This experience provides an opportunity for a student to apply the skills obtained in school to real work situations and to learn additional skills. An internship will also help students define their career goals.
Minimum Requirements:
In order to earn credit for internship, students must work a minimum number of hours, as follows:
Triple Period Interns: 225 hours/semester = 15 hours per week
Double Period Interns: 150 hours/semester = 10 hours per week
Single Period Interns: 75 hours/semester = 5 hours per week
The hours may be arranged to suit the convenience of the supervisor and student. Hours will be given for the weekly seminar meetings which are held at Northwood High School with the Internship Coordinator Mrs. Cynthia Gill.
