Job Purpose
Reporting to the Manager, Leadership and Critical Skill Development, the Intern for Enterprise Learning & Development will provide year-round support to Self-Enrollment & Curriculum, in partnership with AI agents.
This role provides hands-on experience in the delivery of enterprise level self enrollment courses while helping ensure programs are delivered accurately, consistently and on time.
Key Responsibilities
- Support the day-to-day administrative activities for self enrollment courses and other curriculum, through the use of AI agents and other tools.
- Support scheduling, enrolment, participant materials and technology support.
- Maintain accurate learning records and process guides.
- Use technology, templates, and AI-enabled workflows where appropriate to improve team effectiveness and efficiency.
- Support the broader team on short-term, high-priority, or high-visibility projects. Perform other duties as assigned.
What we are looking for
This is an opportunity for an intern interested in a career in Human Resources, Talent Management or Learning and Development. Experience may come from prior internships, co-op assignments, project work, administrative support or an early professional role.
Our best intern is someone who learns quickly, is comfortable with technology, and has a great eye for detail. They can pick up new systems and processes without needing everything spelled out, and they’re comfortable doing the hands-on work that keeps things moving: entering and maintaining records, running reports, monitoring a shared inbox, tracking activity, and spotting when something needs attention. They work quickly but accurately, follow through on what they start, and speak up when something doesn’t look right. Experience in Learning & Development isn’t essential. Curiosity, good judgment, reliability, and the ability to learn fast are much more important.
- Strong organization, attention to detail and follow-through.
- Clear written and verbal communication skills.
- Collaborative and service-oriented approach.
- Basic data, reporting and problem-solving skills.
- Comfortable learning HR systems, collaboration tools and new technology.
- Sound judgment when handling confidential information.
- Core Competencies:
- Action Oriented: Approaches assignments with energy and appropriate urgency.
- Communicates Effectively: Shares clear, concise information tailored to the audience.
- Collaborates: Works effectively with colleagues and stakeholders to achieve shared goals.
- Nimble Learning: Learns new systems, processes and responsibilities through experience and feedback.
- Tech Savvy: Uses technology to improve efficiency, accuracy and the way work is completed.
- Instills Trust: Acts with integrity, reliability and discretion.
What we offer
This role offers broad exposure to leadership development and learning while building practical skills in program coordination, communications and interacting with and improving AI agents.

Tips for Your Learning and Development Associate Internship Search
Apply earlier than you think necessary
Large employers open their summer learning and development associate internship applications the preceding fall, often in September or October. Smaller companies and co-op programs post on a rolling basis closer to start dates. Check listings in the fall for structured programs and throughout the year for everything else.
Build a portfolio before you apply
Hiring teams for learning and development associate internships have little work history to evaluate, so your portfolio does the persuading. Create two or three sample training modules, instructional design storyboards, or facilitation outlines using tools like Articulate, Canva, or Google Slides and link them from your resume so recruiters can assess your work directly.
Work your campus network alongside direct applications
Campus career fairs surface structured learning and development programs tied to your university, and professors or career center staff often know which employers recruit from your school before roles post publicly. Apply directly to companies running smaller cohorts at the same time so you're reaching employers that never recruit on campus.
Practice your intern interview format out loud
Learning and development associate intern screens typically involve a case conversation where you design a short training solution for a given scenario. Practice explaining your design decisions out loud, not just drafting them silently, because interviewers weight your reasoning process as much as the final deliverable.
Target structured L&D rotational and cohort programs
Larger companies run cohort-based learning and development internship programs designed specifically for people new to the field, often pairing interns across instructional design, facilitation, and needs analysis rotations. These programs recruit early, fill fast, and offer the most mentorship, so identify the ones that fit your interests and apply in the first wave.
Set your work-type filter before you start searching
On-site roles are 17% of the learning and development associate internships listed here. Decide what you can commit to before you start sorting through openings, then filter by location and work type so you're only reviewing roles you can actually accept.
Learning and Development Associate Internships: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a learning and development associate internship?
Lead with coursework and personal projects rather than work history, since hiring teams expect limited experience at the intern level. For learning and development associate roles, the concrete artifact recruiters want to assess is a sample training module, instructional design document, or facilitation outline. Combine direct applications with campus career fairs, where L&D recruiters often move faster for students they meet in person.
Can a learning and development associate internship turn into a full-time job?
Many employers extend return offers to strong interns, but conversion is never guaranteed. What actually drives it for learning and development associate interns is performance on real project deliverables, available headcount on the team, and how early the company makes return-offer decisions. Position yourself by contributing visibly on assigned work without assuming a role will materialize.
When should I apply for learning and development associate internships?
Earlier than most candidates expect. Large employers recruit for summer cohorts the preceding fall, sometimes as early as September or October. Smaller companies and co-op programs post much closer to their start dates, so new learning and development associate internship openings appear year-round. Checking listings regularly rather than in one seasonal push gives you the widest window.
Are learning and development associate internships paid?
Most professional learning and development associate internships in the United States are paid. Compensation varies by company size, industry, and location, and listings display it where the employer chooses to disclose it. Unpaid arrangements exist but are uncommon at established organizations, and some states have rules limiting unpaid internships for for-profit companies.
What should a learning and development associate internship resume include?
Lead with projects, not work history. Include two or three complete, documented projects that show tools and outcomes, with links to sample training materials, instructional design storyboards, or facilitation guides where available. Add relevant coursework in instructional design, organizational psychology, or HR. Keep it to one page, since hiring teams screen intern resumes quickly.
Are there remote learning and development associate internships?
Yes. Remote and hybrid roles make up 83% of the learning and development associate internship listings here, with the rest on-site. Remote cohorts fill quickly because they draw applicants from across the country, so apply early and filter by work type to see those openings before they close.
Can international students get learning and development associate internships?
Yes. F-1 students can intern through CPT while enrolled or through OPT work authorization after finishing a degree, and the employer does not have to file anything for either, so many companies are open to international interns. Confirm your eligibility and timing with your university's international student office before accepting an offer.
