"The paid internship is perhaps the most memorable and critical component in the NAF Academy experience for high school students. It is also one of the most rewarding, as it is the opportunity for students to apply, in a real world setting, what theyve learned in their Academy classes in the preceding years."
-National Academy Foundation
One of the key features that differentiate the Academy of Finance student from fellow classmates is an opportunity to participate in a real world work experience while still in high school.
This internship opportunity not only allows employers access to highly motivated temporary help but it also offers students a real world experience which allows them to more fully appreciate their academic lessons and curriculum.
For some employers, this program has become a pipeline for quality employees. Employers rate Academy of Finance interns skills as equal to or better than entry level employees*.
Students participate in 6-10 week internships over the summer or during the school year.
