Intensive Summer Internship Program in Leesburg

Beacon’s unique 职业浸入式课程 (CIP) offers an 80-hour supervised, professional internship within local driving or walking distance from Beacon College. Serving as the nexus between learning and practice, students spend three weeks in May earning their required internship hours in their major through one of our CIP partners in Central 佛罗里达.
