Does your company offer internships? Hopefully the answer is yes! But maybe it's something you're on the fence about, or you haven't given it much thought.

Internships are a great option for businesses and students. As the Great Crew Change nears, the next generation of workers needs to have the training to take over as Baby Boomers retire.

Offering internships is a great way to start that process.

Now is the time to get your internship posted. Students are planning now for Fall semester and it's recommended that employers get their internship ads posted by August. Generally, you would advertise a few months in advance, but there is such a shortage of internships in the industry that you'll probably get plenty of applicants no matter when you advertise. You'll want to contact colleges and trade schools in your area to see how to reach the widest audience when you set up your internship program.
