Every Intern Is Also a Student

To intern with MAHVCORP, a participant must be actively enrolled in a certification program in law, music, technology, or wellness — and MAHVCORP provides that enrollment at no cost, including two-year college pathways.

The requirement is deliberate. Field experience without a credential produces a good story and a weak résumé. Pairing the two means every participant leaves with documented work history and a qualification an employer can verify independently.

The Requirement

Active Enrollment

Participants must be enrolled and in good standing in an approved program for the duration of the internship.

One of Four Fields

Law, music, technology, or wellness. Track selection happens at orientation based on background and career goals.

No Cost to Participants

Tuition and enrollment for approved programs are covered by MAHVCORP. Participants are not asked to finance their own credentialing.

Two-Year College Included

Associate degree pathways are supported alongside shorter certificate programs where that is the better fit.
