The idea of virtual internships is very interesting. Internships are thought of as one of the most beneficial practices for students nearing graduation. They can participate in a high-impact practice, get hands-on training and relevant experience. The alternative options for internships can’t offer all the same advantages, but these substitutes are all great ways to build skills and utilize what the students have learned in class. After the pandemic, do you think that virtual internships should continue to be offered as an option for students who need a more flexible schedule?
