OverviewPost an Internship

Hosting a GCC intern is an opportunity to bring a motivated student into your organization while helping prepare the next generation of professionals in your field.

GCC works with businesses, nonprofits, government agencies and community organizations to connect students with meaningful, hands-on experience related to their academic and professional goals.

Why host a GCC intern?
An internship can help your organization:

  • Bring fresh ideas and perspectives to your team
  • Provide support for projects and initiatives
  • Develop a pipeline of future employees
  • Build connections with GCC and the local workforce
  • Help prepare skilled workers for your industry
How it works
  1. Submit an internship opportunity
    Complete the form with information about your organization and the internship, including the project, responsibilities, schedule and compensation.
  2. GCC reviews the opportunity
    GCC reviews each opportunity to make sure it provides a meaningful learning experience for a student.
  3. GCC connects you with students
    GCC pre-screens students and matches them with appropriate internship opportunities. Students do not apply directly to employers through the website.
  4. Work with your intern
    As an internship host, you’ll provide supervision, guidance and feedback.
What makes a good internship?

A successful internship gives students the opportunity to apply what they’ve learned in the classroom to the workplace, while developing new skills. Before submitting an opportunity, consider whether you can:

  • Provide meaningful work
  • Offer at least 45 hours of experience
  • Provide a supervisor who can guide and support the student
  • Provide an appropriate workspace and necessary technology
  • Offer a paid position

Internships can be one to six credits, with 45 hours of work required for each credit. Internships must be completed during the academic semester.
