11 Student Internship Program
Councilmember Proposal
Implement a trial student summer internship program
with the City of Cupertino. Initial year will be on a limited basis. If approved, applications will be sought for one-, two- or three-week internships during the summer, with
applications to be released in mid-July. Internships will be project-focused, with participating City departments asked to identify a specific project or projects that a student intern can undertake. The internships will have a common start date, and include an orientation, group
activities and exit interviews.

Alternatively, if the time and resources do not permit the City to run a trial program in the upcoming summer of
the fiscal year (i.e., Summer 2022), Council may form a subcommittee to share practices for student internships, and to bring a report back to Council at the end of
Summer 2022 with recommendations as part of the
initiation of a student internship program in Summer
2023.

Operational - Staff recommends
removing this item because the
City already has a policy on
internships within the adopted
Volunteer Policy.
