Student and Business Leader Testimonials

My summer internship at the Augusta Metro Chamber has provided me with great skills that will help me in any workplace. I learned many valuable lessons, participated in volunteer community events, interviewed local business leaders, and conducted research on different topics to help improve the Chamber.

My summer internship at Georgia Power Company was a great opportunity because I was given real-world experience, instead of just learning theory, while earning money.

Internships are important for students because it provides an opportunity to learn industry specific skills that may not be taught in a classroom. Internships for the upcoming generation of students provides an opportunity of transition from youth to adulthood.

Internships are an all-around win. They are placed in a real environment that naturally allows them to develop their business etiquette and soft skills. Employers have an opportunity to develop the next generation by stimulating work ethic and coaching young talent, while utilizing additional resources to accomplish business goals. For each intern that you host, you move mountains within our community and within people’s lives. You will recover financial investment through production.
