STUDENT INTERNSHIP PORTFOLIO

The Student Internship Portfolio encapsulates the cumulative experience of

the Student Internship Program. It is a collection of materials developed and
assembled by the student-intern as evidence of his/her performance and
acquired skills and knowledge over the course of the internship program. This
might include samples of the intern’s work found in letters, memos,
photographs, videos, reports or brochures, as well as evaluations written by
their clients, colleagues or immediate supervisors.

The portfolio allows the student-intern to reflect on the most significant events
and experiences of their internship or work experience training. Student-intern
integrates these reflections into a comprehensive internship portfolio which
both showcases their specific achievements in the workplace and analyzes
the quality of their learning throughout the internship period. Contents are
normally compiled as a soft-bound booklet. All submissions must be well-
organized (i.e. with cover page, table of contents, tabbed, etc.), typed and
otherwise professionally presented. The front cover and title page must
include: complete name, course, year and section of
the student-intern, a title – usually the SIP Center/Cooperating School Name,
and the semester/year taken. The following suggestions are not intended to
be all inclusive but are only guidelines for the final Internship Portfolio. The
portfolio MAY include but is not necessarily limited to the following content:
