Corporate Partnership
Become a Corporate Partner, change a life, and elevate your workplace.
Our corporate partners provide internship opportunities so that our students can spend real time in the business world. We have teamed with more than 70 business partners to provide our students with internship opportunities in a variety of workplaces. Students say the lessons they learn from their internships stick with them and help guide them through their education and the pursuit of careers.
Our partners include both large companies and small to mid-size businesses, commercial enterprises and local nonprofits. Our hosts, such as CarMax, Capital One and Dominion, highly rate our students’ work ethic, demeanor, and performance, while students embrace the chance to work side-by-side with seasoned professionals and to learn the habits and skills they will need in their working lives.
