AFE Creates Internship Guide for Business Owners

AFE’s new “Employer Resource Guide” was created to help small business owners in the industry build a successful internship program.

The key to attracting and keeping young workers may not be the free-spirited perks of popular culture (free food, ping pong tables and skateboards in the workplace). Instead, many millennials are looking for something much more traditional from jobs: skills.

That’s according to “Millennial Careers: 2020 Vision,” a study by Manpower Group, which found that 93 percent of young workers see “skills development” as an important part of their career path.

For many business owners, internships provide a way to pass along valuable skills to young workers while building a next generation workforce. That’s one reason the American Floral Endowment recently developed its new “Employer Resource Guide” for building a successful internship program.

“This comprehensive guide will walk you through how to establish a program to create a pipeline of fresh talent for your organization,” said Lori Ostrow, AFE’s manager of communications. “With easy-to-follow guidelines, checklists, and other tools and resources, you can immediately begin developing an internship program at your organization, and ensure an internship experience that benefits you, your company and your intern.”
