About
Employers increasingly expect graduates to demonstrate work experience, while AI and technology are reducing entry-level and part-time opportunities. This makes meaningful internships and the digital skills to succeed in them more important than ever. Universities are responding by offering internships, and some are now promoting guaranteed placements in their marketing, underlining how critical these opportunities have become. How can institutions use data to ensure students thrive in virtual internships and staff are equipped to support them?
