INTERNSHIPS
A primary goal of the Foundation is to "Connect Education with Experience" throughout the Blackstone Valley and beyond. One way that we partner schools and businesses is by facilitating Internship Programs tailored to meet the needs of each school district.
Internship opportunities provide real life experiences and play a pivotal role in student career choices. These programs provide a means of bringing education and industry closer together. With the help of BVEF, both business and schools are able to collaborate and understand the needs and challenges of working together.
