The Magic “I” Word: Internships
- According to employers, one of the most valuable types of experiences you can have.
- Organizations hire many full-time employees from summer or academic year interns.
- Kansas Micro-internship Program
The National Association of Colleges and Employers defines an internship this way:
An internship is a form of experiential learning that integrates knowledge and theory learned in the classroom with practical application and skills development in a professional setting. Internships give students the opportunity to gain valuable applied experience and make connections in professional fields they are considering for career paths; and give employers the opportunity to guide and evaluate talent.
To ensure that an experience—whether it is a traditional internship or one conducted remotely or virtually—is educational, and thus eligible to be considered a legitimate internship by the NACE definition, all the following criteria must be met:
- The experience must be an extension of the classroom: a learning experience that provides for applying the knowledge gained in the classroom. It must not be simply to advance the operations of the employer or be the work that a regular employee would routinely perform.
- The skills or knowledge learned must be transferable to other employment settings.
- The experience has a defined beginning and end, and a job description with desired qualifications.
- There are clearly defined learning objectives/goals related to the professional goals of the student’s academic coursework.
- There is supervision by a professional with expertise and educational and/or professional background in the field of the experience.
- There is routine feedback by the experienced supervisor.
- There are resources, equipment, and facilities provided by the host employer that support learning objectives/goals.

Each employer has unique internship parameters, so be sure to ask lots of questions during the selection process to ensure that the experience is what you are seeking. Your accomplishments and tasks completed during your internship are more important than simply having the word “Intern” on your resume.
At the start of your internship, meet with your supervisor to discuss your interest areas and internship goals. While you may not be able to tailor your entire experience, showing initiative and ownership of your experience will demonstrate professionalism and dedication to the position. Make your specific areas of interest and experience known to your internship supervisor.
Treat your internship as a job interview. Since many employers hire full-time employees from recent interns, your performance during the internship can determine whether or not you are offered a position. During your internship, act as you would if you were a full-time employee. Following the dress code, arriving on time, staying on task, and completing work within deadlines will impress your supervisor. Even if your company does not have a position open, a positive reference from your internship will be very helpful during your job search.

Employer: American Conservation Experience Expires: 04/10/2026 Interpretation and Digital Outreach Member - Brown v. Board of Education National Historical ParkSummaryAmerican Conservation Experience, a nonprofit Conservation Corps, in partnership with National Park Service (NPS), is seeking THREE Members to contribute to interpretation and digital outreach alongside NPS Staff.For more information about ACE, please visit our website.Start Date: June 2026Estimated End Date: September/October 2026*a 17-week minimum commitment is required*Location Details/Description: Brown v. Board of Education National Historical Park (BRVB; Topeka, KS)The position is located in Topeka, Kansas, the vibrant capital of Kansas about 30 minutes west of Lawrence and sixty miles west of Kansas City. Topeka is a medium-sized city, home to Washburn University, with ample, affordable housing. The Kansas City metro area is a World Cup soccer site in June-July 2026. While there are some public transportation options and walkability, having a personal vehicle is highly recommended for commuting as well as to access groceries and other amenities on days off. Amtrak serves Topeka on a limited basis, too, and the nearest commercial airport is Kansas City, MO (MCI).Brown v. Board of Education National Historical Park (BRVB) is the only national park unit devoted specifically to a US Supreme Court decision. In 1954 the court decided five cases from South Carolina, Kansas, Virginia, Delaware, and the District of Columbia together, declaring that “segregation is inherently unequal” and that segregation by race in public schools is therefore unconstitutional. The park interprets the history and events leading up to the decision and the legacies of the decision since 1954. Also, Congress expanded the park in 2022 to include a new unit in Summerton, SC (under development) and five affiliated areas in Virginia, Delaware, and Washington, DC.
