What are my responsibilities?
We ask our Internship Host Organisations to agree to the following responsibilities:
- To provide a detailed project plan outlining the intern’s project or tasks. This helps the Internship Department source the most suitable applicant for your project.
- To provide an on-site supervisor, who is responsible for the intern's day-to-day activities.
- To provide the intern with an organisational orientation which addresses organisational policies and confidentiality arrangements.
- To give the student the opportunity to gain an insight into the organisation and become familiar with its aims, procedures and activities.
- To provide space and equipment necessary for the intern to undertake work, and meet any work-related costs incurred by the intern in the normal course of their internship.
- To communicate with the Internship Department about any relevant issues that come up during the internship.
- To participate in the assessment of the student by promptly completing a supervisor assessment. This assessment is completed online and requires you to rate the student’s skills and provide a final mark out of 25.
