case study pdf"The Urban Alliance interns were well prepared and quick learners. The training they received allowed them to perform quality work with very little intervention. Before we knew it, they were able to take on more tasks and work more independently, which is not always the case with High School interns."
Robin Norman, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
