Conservation Internship Partner Handbook

As an important partner with SCA, you are critical to the success of our conservation-in-action mission. We are grateful that you've chosen to work with SCA and will do everything we can to support you and your intern. This manual offers advice and information which will help you make selections, understand communication between you, SCA and selected interns, and generally promote a successful internship. Whether you are new to SCA and supervising an intern for the first time, or you've been with us for years, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with all forms, schedules and policies. Please refer to this information before and after your intern arrives. As always, we are here to help you with any issues or concerns that may arise while you supervise the intern.

We encourage you to read these pages carefully. It includes almost all of the information you’ll need in order to:

• Successfully supervise your intern(s)
• Deal with questions of travel, subsistence allowance, insurance and logistics
• Get support from SCA staff when necessary

• Report to SCA anything affecting the health and well-being of your intern(s).
