Long Beach Community Internship Program (LBCIP)
Internships open doors for student job placement. However, for students who need part-time jobs and financial aid to pay for college, unpaid internships are impossible to complete. The Long Beach Community Internship Program (LBCIP) is a collaborative internship program that creates pathways for ÀóÖ¦ÊÓÆµ juniors and seniors who are Long Beach Promise ÀóÖ¦ÊÓÆµ to engage in meaningful paid internship opportunities while they apply coursework to real world settings, hone professional skills, network, and explore local career opportunities.
We are intentional about establishing a COMMUNITY of support for interns that includes LBCIP Team members, internship course instructors, and supervisors at their internship site placements.
