Students are available for 20 hours of placement from August 2023 - December 2023.
This is an unpaid for-credit experience.
Please note: Internationally based company placements will be remote. London based company placements can can be on site.
Learners
Deliverables will vary depending on the scope of the project. The student should complete a minimum of 20 hours with your organization by January 2024.
Project Examples
Requirements
Students can complete a substantial project for your organization over the placement period. We suggest providing a starting project, but as the placement goes on there may be other duties or projects the student is asked to complete as well. Providing a central project creates structure for the internship, and gives the student (and company) a tangible goal.
