Virginia Intern Day
Thank you to the top employers, students, and higher education institutions who made Virginia Intern Day 2023 a huge success! Now it is time to get ready for 2024!
V-TOP, SCHEV, the Virginia Chamber Foundation, the Virginia Business Higher Education Council, higher education institutions, and employers across the Commonwealth will celebrate Virginia Intern Day on July 25, 2024.
Virginia Intern Day (VID) builds off of National Intern Day as an excellent way to energize stakeholders about the powerful impact that internships and work-based learning have on students. VID marks a great occasion to recognize student-interns, employers, and institutions instrumental in delivering internship and work-based learning opportunities.
