PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Year Up partners with an impressive group of more than 160 leading
companies to provide internships to its students. These
internships are full time, entry-level positions for 26
weeks in one of two areas:

WHY HIRE A YEAR UP INTERN?
Year Up participants are pre-screened and pre-trained and
are a great way to assess entry-level talent before hiring.
Prior to internships, all Year Up students have completed
six months of rigorous technical training and classes in professional
skill development including: effective communication, project
management and leadership.
