  • The employer is responsible for all on-site training and supervision.
  • The employer will permit on-site visits by the departmental internship director, usually once a quarter.
  • The employer will agree to assist in the evaluation of the performance of the intern at the conclusion of the program.
  • While student intern compensation is not required, it is encouraged.
