Internship Design and Management for Maximum Success.

Abstract

Internships are critical elements in the development of many museum professional careers, in addition to required elements of most Museum Studies programs. An internship in the right place, at the right time, with the right people can support, redirect, or define a professional's career. Whether paid or unpaid, brief or extended, local-regional-international, there are a variety of best practices for creating, maintaining and engaging internships. This poster is intended to provide advice on how to best facilitate and manage internships for maximum results.
