Benefits of an internship
An internship placement is a practical training experience
within a company, business or organisation. Designed to complement
prior learning in a particular field, an industry-specific
placement allows individuals to apply theoretical understanding,
develop knowledge, qualifications and skills in their area
of expertise while working within a host company. Our programs
are tailored to suit the needs of the host company and the
intern. Flexibility in start dates and the duration of programs
are discussed prior to placements being confirmed with either
party.

How the Host Company Benefits
Being a host company means offering an internship program
opportunity to students and recent graduates. It gives you
the chance to guide and mentor the future generation and can
assist your organisation to complete short-term projects,
or review graduates prior to recruitment.
While an intern may lack extensive practical experience, they
instead bring enthusiasm, theoretical capability and knowledge
which is current and is highly beneficial to the host company.
SkillZone Internship helps host companies find suitable interns
that will add value and a competitive edge to their business.
