Internship 101—Disadvantages of Internships Internships are not for everyone. It takes a student who is willing to put in the
time and an airport that has a need to put an aspiring airport professional to productive use. (Hopper)
![Page 49: The Value of Aviation Internship Programs](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/568150c4550346895dbee350/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

Internship 101—Getting Started Businesses can request interns directly or
from a school or visit websites of organizations that offer assistance. (Rupp)
![Page 51: The Value of Aviation Internship Programs](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/568150c4550346895dbee350/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Internship 101—Getting Started Size does not matter because:
A successful internship program can be of great benefit to both the organization and the student/students it hosts.
In a small airport an intern can be of assistance by wearing many hats, and learning the skill of “multitasking.”
A larger airport may assign an intern to a special department or project, which offers the opportunity for the student to learn a specific skill. (Rupp)
![Page 52: The Value of Aviation Internship Programs](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/568150c4550346895dbee350/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Internship 101—Internship Management In an article entited, Educating Interns Will in
Turn Produce Assets, Patricia Kitchen pointed out that: The internship is a learning experience for the
student so it is going to take time for the employer to explain the “lingo”, the procedures, and the etiquette of your organization.
Direct interns to the “natural born mentor” types. Remember that the intern may be a future
employee, especially with potential laborer shortage.
![Page 53: The Value of Aviation Internship Programs](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/568150c4550346895dbee350/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

Turn Produce Assets, Patricia Kitchen pointed out that: Interns bring fresh thinking to the organization Internship involves “homework” on your part such
