NFPA Continues to Source Talented Interns for Member Companies

Internships and co-ops are important parts of a student’s education, providing the relevant work experience employers want. As part of our workforce development efforts, NFPA is offering a limited number of $5,000 grants to companies that hire an intern through our Internship Support Program. NFPA is gathering student resumes and will send them to qualifying member companies. If your company does not have an established internship program, you can still qualify by creating a meaningful internship or co-op program that includes orientation and onboarding, an engaged supervisor, exposure to company culture, and meaningful work that exposes the student to the fluid power aspects of the business.
