An internship is a structured work experience where individuals gain practical skills while exploring a career pathway. Interns work on real projects under guidance and mentorship, often for academic credit or a stipend. Internships provide valuable workplace experience, build professional networks, and prepare individuals for long-term success in high-demand industries.
Whether you’re an employer looking to build your workforce or a student/job seeker ready to gain experience, WSRCA can connect you to structured internships and pre-internship programs. Contact us at internships@ruralcapital.net to start your internship journey today!
A partnership between the Texas Workforce Commission, Texas Education Agency (TEA) and the Higher Education Coordinating Board (THECB), the Texas Internship Challenge connects students with paid or for-credit internships and encourages employers to offer these opportunities. Colleges are also encouraged to promote internships and offer academic credit.
