Description
Must interns be paid? Are minority-only internships legal? If an intern is harassed or injured on the job, who is responsible? For recruiting and career services practitioners alike, the legal questions surrounding internships are many. Take part and get straight answers to these and other questions so you can counsel or recruit interns with confidence. Employers will learn how to ensure the internship program is a benefit—not a liability—for the organization, while career services will learn how to help students understand their rights and responsibilities for the best experience possible.
