Why Internships Are Good

Every year thousands of students give their education an edge through internships. Why are internships so popular? They work. Internships offer students practical knowledge they often do not receive in the classroom. Through internships, students are often able to access employers they otherwise could not. Where degrees alone sometimes fail to prepare students for the working world, internships do. Internships are good for students, they are good for teachers, they are good for employers, they are good for parents, they are good for the economy, they are good for society. A group of internship advocates worked together to write this book with one message: internships are good.
