Macklin Business Institute provides variouse Internship programs, both for students and Employer's benefits.

                Macklin strongly advises for businesses to identify the units in your organization which may need or utilize business student-interns . As well as developing position descriptions, listing responsibilities and identifying the academic preparations, qualifications or special skills required for the positions. Provide reasonable part-time employee compensation.

                Internships offer career exploration opportunities in a variety of fields and provide hands on experience. Students who complete internships are often more marketable to employers. A student intern also has the opportunity to develop good references and to network. Both college supervisors and on-site supervisors closely monitor student's work progress. Students will acquire experience and skills that will enhance their personal growth and development and at the same time legitimize the theoretical classroom learning. They will bring information back to the classroom and provide feedback in real world terms. Educational costs incurred by the student may also be partially offset since employers pay competitive salaries to the students for the work they perform. Students may even continue to participate as an intern with the company throughout their college careers.

                As a sponsor of student interns, an employer looks forward to highly motivated pre-professionals, who are actively pursuing academic training in business. Internships give employers a special staff for short-term projects or long-term on-going operations, with the opportunity of flexible scheduling. It is expected that student interns will be ambitious, highly motivated, hard-working individuals who will bring fresh ideas and enthusiasm to the company. Business internships give employers a flexible, cost-effective work force not requiring a long-term commitment, and freeing permanent professional staff for alternative work. Employers receive a chance to preview the performance of strong candidates for future employment in a variety of job settings. Benefits to Montgomery College and the Macklin Business Institute By taking part in internship programs, employers assist universities and colleges by providing linkages to the business community-- contact that is important if academic institutions are to respond to the needs of business. This link between the classroom and the boardroom enables the program to formally integrate academic studies with work experience in a variety of business fields. Strengthening this link can enhance both the college and the company profile. In return, employers are asked to monitor, guide, and supervise their student interns, in order to utilize their career-related skills and promoting professional development.
