Employers and Supervisors
Thank you for your interest in Northwest
Christian University students! We have many opportunities to
partner together with outside companies to provide mutually
beneficial experiences.
Provide an Internship
In accordance with the vision, mission, and values of Northwest
Christian University, internship is designed to prepare students
for a career in their chosen field by integrating their academic
coursework with practical experience in a business, agency, or
organization in the community.
Internship is more than an academic requirement. It is an
opportunity to acquire knowledge within a specific field, refine
skills and abilities, and obtain valuable work experience.
Effective communication and strong interpersonal relationships are
central to a successful internship. While an internship may not
lead to a dream job, it is a stepping stone to on-going career
development.
By treating interns as valuable members of the organization,
employers benefit. Interns bring new blood, new ideas, and new
energy to an organization. Employers also have the opportunity to
assess a student's "fit" with the organization and get a realistic
preview of the student's abilities. Employers may even convert
interns into permanent hires and significantly decrease their
cost-per-hire. Providing meaningful internship opportunities allows
employers to validate a student's career path, offer a realistic
view of the workplace, and instill responsible work habits. Since
monetary compensation is not required for participation, employers
may acheive these benefits at a minimal financial expense.
