Setting Up an On-Campus Editing Internship

  1. Go to the Internship Provider Login page and click on "Register with us here." This will take you to a page that will ask for basic contact information regarding your company. It will also allow you to create a user name and password. Be careful to keep this information recorded and in a safe place. Please include an email address for your company. When you have finished filling out the form, click "create account."

  2. Login on the Internship Provider Login page. Once logged in you will be able to enter new internship postings, as well as edit any that you have posted.

  3. To post an new internship, choose "Post New Internship" from the menu bar at the top of the page. Fill out the form provided. If a particular section does not apply, leave it blank. When you have completed the form, click on "Add Internship."

  4. Your internship will not be posted immediately. Before adding it to our site, it must be approved by the internship coordinator. The coordinator will determine if the internship meets the university and department criteria for academic internships in editing. The basic requirements follow:

    • The internship should involve application of editing principles and enhance learning about communication or publication processes.
    • The intern should have a qualified supervisor, someone who can train the intern and give feedback. The supervisor will be asked to do two formal evaluations of the intern.
  5. After it is approved, the announcement will be posted on our editing internship website. The coordinator will further publicize the opening and otherwise assist you in finding an intern. If you have any concerns or if suitable candidates do not apply promptly, please contact the coordinator.

If you have any technical difficulty, please contact Professor Doris Dant at drdant@gmail.com.
