Interns will be compensated for 10-15 hours per week combined at assigned businesses. Businesses will complete an onboarding questionnaire to determine the need and scope of the project, areas of deficit, and goals for student interns.
In turn, participating businesses will receive, at no cost, skilled interns who will receive work experience that directly aligns with their academic background or career goals. Examples of services available include marketing (social media platforms and marketing plans), web design, SEO, Google My Business, graphic design (print and digital), finance, event planning, digital content creation (blog, vlog, and video), and photography. Internship roles are assigned according to skillset, project requests, and identified needs and resources of the requesting businesses. We’re really excited to have this tool to offer to our local businesses.” “The program offers practical solutions, without the price tag. “The interns in this program operate much like independent contractors, making it a great opportunity for local businesses to tackle hurdles that might be holding them back,” said Jodi Pitts, SBDC Small Business Specialist. Designed to offer skilled support to local businesses this program also provides students with practical work experience, growth, and development opportunities.
The Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at Upper Cumberland Development District (UCDD) is working closely with Tennessee Tech University to recruit interns.
