Virtual Entrepreneurship Internship Program
Are you finding it challenging to secure internship opportunities for your students at local entrepreneurial businesses or help them meet career readiness standards?
Our Virtual Entrepreneurship Internship Program will expose your students to what it is like being an entrepreneur and developing a successful business from the ground up. This year-long program prepares students prior to stepping into a physical workspace, and gives them the opportunity to test and try concepts in a riskfree simulated environment. And unlike a physical internship, your students will get to experience and manage all aspects of creating their own business. They’ll gain valuable skills and get to uncover which areas they like most and where they’d like to focus in the future, or major in at college.
