The 8-week internship portion of the program that follows orientation week will be remote from your home base. This ensures a smooth uniform program as companies continue to transition to new business models where employees work from home part-or-all of the time and office space is being consolidated.

Through our successful 2020 & 2021 virtual programs, we saw how IRTS can continue to inspire and open doors for young professionals, even when we can't be in-person!
