Our 12-week internship bootcamp will expose you to the critical skills and experiences that employers demand.
An internship is an invaluable step in kicking off your professional career. It provides you with a peek into corporate culture and expectations. It also allows you to compare your studies against the real-world application. Finally, it starts to build your brand and reputation that will follow you to your first post-university job and beyond.
Traditional internships can be hard to find or fit into your hectic schedule. If they are unpaid, they force you to make the difficult trade off of compensation versus experience. The Valid internship bootcamp provides the opportunity to gain many of the benefits of a traditional internship while allowing you to maintain some flexibility.

What you’ll learn
Cultural Norms
Students often find the transition from a university environment to the corporate one jarring. They do not understand that they are joining a new culture with its own language and rules. No university adequately prepares students for this, but the Valid app does.
Professional Concepts
A broad set of skills are required in today’s competitive climate. It is not enough that new employees are comfortable with technology, regardless of their discipline, but they must understand how technology work is structured and implemented. The Valid app introduces these theories.
Personal Expectations
The corporate world practices a style of accountability that few students are prepared for initially. The pressure to contribute immediately and add value can be overwhelming. The Valid app reinforces the need to take the initiative, pay attention to detail, and hit your deadlines.
