The CrossPrep internship program is large in scope, in fact it is unlimited. The program covers all major areas of business and includes significant real world philanthropic consulting. Our locations currently include over 100 universities across the US and will eventually expand to global institutions. It's just as important to us as any of our commercial initiatives.
What is Philanthropy Consulting?
Our internship program centers on philanthropic work. Meaning the skills that our interns learn are packaged into consulting programs and offered to organizations that are doing good for people and communities. Philanthropic organizations always need help. Our contribution is to provide skilled interns to consult and tools to create efficiency. The CrossPrep platform is of course the primary tool used to help organize the work.
Note; this is not standard volunteer work. This is about high level strategic consulting and project based deployments.
Marketing and Business Development.
The marketing and business development intern teams will work to find new organizations than can use our help, and grow the scope of our help within existing organizations. Although marketing and business development functions are very different in work type they do, they will need to learn to work together on strategy.
You will learn and deploy all manors of advertising and direct response mechanisms. The CrossPrep staff will provide training and resources for all major marketing and business development activities.
In short, you will be part of the team who finds organizations that can use the services of our consulting specialists. We don't charge for these services. The challenge is to make a good match between an organization's needs and the available talents of our Consulting Specialists.
Choosing a Position Level.
There are several internship levels available, ranging from Director level to Specialist. Director and management levels require some form of managerial experience, and will entail more time for management duties. A Specialist is simply applying very specific skills to our clients tactical needs.
