2016 TECH APPRENTICE

PROGRAM SUMMARY

“ I think many people would be surprised at the level the summer interns function at in the
workplace and what they are able to accomplish in such a short period of time. Our Chief Information
Security Officer was ecstatic with their contributions during their internship. I would have thought I
was listening to college interns present at the closing ceremony.”
Jim Noga, Chief Information Officer, Partners HealthCare
