Interns hold pivotal roles at Tilth Alliance contributing their time and skills while gaining valuable work experience with a successful nonprofit.
An internship is a structured work-related learning experience with an emphasis on on-the-job training for individuals who wish to develop hands-on work experience in a certain field. Interns typically commit to 10 or more hours per week for a fixed time commitment of 3 months or more. Interns receive training, professional experience, and the opportunity to develop new skills and take on leadership roles. Interns receive supervision and feedback from a professional with expertise/ background in the field.
