A second challenge is feeling like you are unable to compensate the intern. Remember, not all internships are paid. Students can often complete an internship to earn academic credit for their work and do not require compensation. Jordan mentioned that it can be hard for students to find positions during the academic semester due to their busy schedules, but an internship that can be flexible with their working hours can be very appealing. Another possibility is to provide the student with a small bonus at the end of their internship. Especially if the student is working on a revenue-generating project, you may have more capital you can set aside along the way. Remember, even just $100-$500 can mean a lot to a student when they don’t expect it! https://www.columbiatribune.com/story/business/columns/2023/04/23/sappington-experiential-learning-provides-valuable-opportunities-for-small-businesses-and-nonprofits/70134400007/?fbclid=IwAR3Ok1-_a8z_HBUk3j1DDZj8rCXQfa98y8GPNaeIn66r6UGjrzojV61E2Zk
