At the core of a Supported Internship is the real-life, hands on experience students will gain while on placement at their employer site. Students will be working with a real work team and on real work tasks. What differentiates this from “work experience” is the quality of experience gained – meaning tasks are not created for our interns, but rather real tasks are adjusted (when & if required) so as to become more accessible as well as to ensure our interns are gaining valuable transferable skills. 

Students will receive close support from job coaches & work-buddies throughout their internships – with their aim being to enable students to gain the key skills and experience required to professionally progress.
