As part of their NAF academy experience, students participate in a paid internship program to gain valuable workplace experience. NAF National Partner Internship Programs offer paid positions provided by notable NAF employer partners for motivated students during Summer 2024*. These internship positions are selective and to be considered for one of these prestigious opportunities, students must complete an eligibility process, a program application, and depending on the program, an interview. Internship programs are planned to develop students academically, economically, and socially. There are responsibilities of the student and parent/guardian that must be considered in the eligibility process. For students under the age of 18, a parent/legal guardian must agree to the responsibilities outlined below and approve their student’s participation in the internship selection process by completing and signing this form. (Students aged 18+ will need to complete this form).*Specific program details, including dates, work schedule, and pay rate will be provided in early 2024.

Eligibility Process and Program Application Steps:

1. At the recommendation of NAF Academy staff, students complete the required eligibility process (submitting this form is one of the requirements)
2. NAF will communicate eligibility status to students by email.
3. Eligible students, academy leaders, and parent/guardian are contacted by email once specific program information and the corresponding application process is released (usually in January or February).
4. Eligible students begin program-specific application process(es). *Some academies might be invited to participate in the application and selection process for multiple programs. Students can apply to more than one program, but only one job offer can be accepted if multiple offers are made. Students will be removed from consideration for other program(s).

This completed and signed form will be included as a required part of the eligibility process.
