My boss has assigned me to look into getting an I.T. intern (possibly from the local colleges) to replace some of my duties, which will leave me more time for web development. However, I have never been an intern or dealt with one in any way.

Does anyone out there have suggestions on how to structure an internship or how to market an internship? I'm at a loss here.

Does HR have a program in place?

Does Legal?

You can develop documentation on processes and procedures, but you shouldn't be designing how and when an intern works.

Also if you are covered by SOX, HIPAA or government regulations, you need legal and HR to sign off that the intern CAN do those functions.

I can recommend http://www.internweb.com/empres.asp to get you started.

I don't pretend to know what I'm doing, but that website is really going to help. I will definately work with HR after putting together a plan. Thankfully, my employer's industry doesn't have any specific regulation to follow.
