ACN Internship Program

What is an Internship ?
An Internship is a temporary position within a commercial organisation where the emphasis is on-the-job training rather than merely employment. It is similar to an apprenticeship. Student internships provide opportunities for students to gain experience in their field of study, usually to determine if they have an interest in a particular career. Internships can also provide the prospect of interns returning to the company after completing their education.
