WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BEING AN INTERN?

Being an intern at UVSO is a great way to learn about the non-profit spectrum, charity, education, community engagement, children and media business at the same time. Pretty amazing!

How is the internship program designed?

UVSO internships are designed to be a learning experience for sharp, enthusiastic self-starters, with or without skills.

Our interns do meaningful work across various shows and departments, are an integral part of the team, and assist with all aspects of work. Over the internship term, interns can learn multiple skills, including community engagement, marketing, administrative support, reporting, editing, production, field recording, digital audio editing, taping, planning live events, research, and more.
