University MOU’s, verification and Student Membership/Advantages

With our Partnership at the Universities, we are able to acquire the following information from either the “Departmental in charge of Internship” or the interested Students to plan and be able to place them in time and respectively.

• The number of students
• Their institutions/Universities
• The courses offered
• The kind of internship vacancies required
• When are they due for internship?
• How long they will be for internship.
• The preferred area of location for internship.

This information enables us plan prior to the internships, know when to organize mega internship workshops, identify vacancies and allocate students in time to avoid panic and all other mischief’s. All interested students have to become members by paying Annual membership fee of 20,000/= (Twenty thousand shillings) to be able to access our services. It’s upon registration that we determine placements. A secret code is sent to every student upon membership payment either through online on the website, Mobile/Airtel Money or our bank Account.

All interested students must subscribe for membership and register at list 60 days prior to internship for proper planning and placement. Internship Agency Limited will not be reliable for late registration

Whenever a student applies for any of our Vacancies, there is a system generated reply; to the office applied too, us at the agency and to the Departmental in charge at their University. The same applies whenever the student has been placed making the system credible. This depends on the information and contacts that we receive from both the university and student.

Advantages to the Universities: 

• Streamline internship process since it’s going to be centralized
• Keep truck and information of the internship students for the university
• Creating internship data base for the university both before finishing their courses and even after the university
• Back up for the university by keeping students internship data for future reference.
• Orient our partnering organizations on how internship should be conducted on behalf of the University.
• Allow the University to follow up on students since everything will be done online.
• University to give a proper internship guideline to all our partnering Organizations.
• Avoid forgery of internship Reports since the University will be in the know of all its students.

 Advantages to students and recent graduates

• We update our members with all available opportunities regularly (online) to avoid last minute panic, falling prey to con men, and forgery of reports and keep records for future reference.
• All students and recent graduates who do internship, research and Voluntary work through Internship Agency have priority among our partnering companies/organization for any future opportunity.
• We keep in contact with all our once subscribed members (through social media and other means) no matter how long for any future vacancy hence widening employment opportunity.
• Our website comprises all students across the country/region and links the university authorities and employers.
• All applications are made online avoiding the technical know who and the social class of the university that one attends, but rather focuses on one’s knowledge, ability and performance for any placement on first come first serve basis.
• Life after the university (The graduates Club). We shall have workshops/public lectures at either the beginning or end of each internship session for each university and different companies/individuals will give guidance to all interns on life after the university. This is the first of its kind in Uganda and will prepare students on way forward after university.
