Offer Internships at your Organisation
How taking on an intern can benefit your business
Taking on an intern from our Skills Bootcamp cohorts could bring fresh skills and energy to your organisation for a short period and even lead to permanent employment.
Our Skills Bootcamp learners are fully equipped with knowledge from our digital suite of courses and have been immersed in our rich programme of wrap-around support to improve their employability and know how to apply their learning to real life situations.
Internship opportunities offer a short-term solution to a skills gap within your organisation or help it grow from experience you didn't even know you needed.
“We had the wonderful opportunity of hiring Tasnim, a digital marketing bootcamp intern. The skills she had gained on the course were immediately applied to our Knowledge Transfer Partnership promotion activity. This included creating animated video’s, research into target markets and blogs. We were very lucky to have such an enthusiastic, creative and diligent addition to our team. My only regret is that we couldn’t keep her on for longer.”
(Ellen Parkes, Knowledge Transfer Partnerships Manager, 2023)
