What is an Internship Agreement?

An internship agreement engages a student or recent graduate as an intern for a fixed period. It records the department and mentor, the duration, the stipend, working expectations, confidentiality, and who owns the work the intern produces.

A written agreement protects both sides: the intern knows what they will learn and be paid, and the organisation has clear terms on confidentiality and IP.

When to use it

  • You are taking on a summer or semester intern.
  • A college requires a written internship agreement or letter.
  • An intern will work with confidential information or create material you want to own.

How to make it legally valid

  • Signed by the intern and an authorised signatory (and a parent or guardian if the intern is a minor).
  • Confidentiality and IP assignment clauses where the intern creates work product.
  • A certificate issued at the end, as usually expected.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • No IP clause for work the intern creates.
  • Treating a long-running intern as a full employee without an employment contract.
  • No clarity on stipend payment dates.
