HRCarbon Launches the Virtual Internship Program - VIP for Corporate Sustainability

 
TORONTO - June 24, 2013 - PRLog -- Internship 2.0 – Train. Work. Deliver Online!

HRCarbon takes its internship program to the virtual world. This next generation initiative educates and empowers Sustainability Professionals worldwide - online.

HRCarbon has deployed an innovative Virtual Internship Program to engage the ever growing population of Sustainability Professionals. The program trains interns on relevant components of HRCarbon’s Sustainability Management and Reporting Framework and then enables them to engage with employers on a structured virtual internship.

This exciting virtual opportunity provides an internet-based engagement experience for those who want to be a part of the global Corporate Sustainability community. The VIP program benefits from HRCarbon’s expertise in Corporate Sustainability Consulting, Education and Training services. The program is designed to provide a hassle-free communication channel and to offer continuous support for better management of interns.

Employers are looking at this innovative program to leverage and source a global resource pool of future employees who have embedded corporate sustainability skills and knowledge.

For the interns, this is a unique avenue to gain sustainability knowledge and practical experience in CSR reporting through online collaboration and learning.

A California based organization is now on their second VIP intake of 10 interns from across North America. This California-based Corporate Sustainability Data Vendor has employed HRCarbon’s VIP to engage and empower the organization and the interns. They have embarked on an initial 100 hour virtual internship as part of a graduated program that enables the Intern Researcher to Research, Extract and Populate a Sustainability Metrics Data repository. After the initial 100 hours, the intern can optionally continue to the more senior role of Intern Quality Assurance Analyst. Subsequently, there are opportunities for these interns to become managers of other interns.  

HRCarbon VIP has embedded scalability into the DNA of this program, as virtual interns can be based anywhere in the world that’s Internet-accessible (hence the “virtual” in the name). The self-sustaining “train-the-trainers” model enables the program to grow organically, tapping the “crowdsourcing” spirit to continually support the career aspirations of Sustainability Professionals in the corporate environment.
