Once confined to medical graduates, internship is used for a wide range of placements in businesses,\u00a0non-profit organizations and government agencies. They are typically undertaken by students and graduates looking to gain relevant skills and experience in a particular field.<\/p>\n<p>Internships for professional careers are similar in some ways. Similar to internships,\u00a0apprenticeships transition students from vocational school into the workforce. The lack of standardization and oversight leaves the term &#8220;internship&#8221; open to broad interpretation. Interns may be high school students, college and university students, or post-graduate adults.
