Lane County Human Resource Association (LCHRA) is excited to announce that the application for the 2020 Employer Internship Grant is now live. This is a great opportunity for organizations interested in hiring an intern to offset some of the costs, while providing in-depth learning experiences for emerging HR professionals.
This year, we will award three $1,500 employer grants to employers who hire a student to work in a Human Resources capacity under the guidance of an HR professional.
Internships provide students with the opportunity to gain the real-world experience employers seek. For employers, it’s an opportunity to develop a pipeline of experienced HR candidates while taking advantage of the grant. Mentoring an HR intern also contributes to the education and development of future HR professionals.
