Last Updated 8/4/2025

Could a Micro-Internship be right for you?

The Kansas Micro-Internship (KMI) program supports the Kansas Board of Regents’ “Building a Future” strategic plan and the Kansas Department of Commerce’s aim to connect businesses, job seekers, educational institutions and training providers to ensure the state’s workforce is equipped to meet industry needs and to help create economic success for Kansas residents and businesses.

Micro-Internships are short-term, paid, professional assignments in business, communications, education, finance, human resources, information technology, marketing, research, and many other areas. The first five Kansas Micro-Internship projects (up to a maximum of $500 per project) completed for a Kansas organization or entrepreneur by students currently enrolled in any of the 32 Kansas public colleges and universities are available at no cost thanks to funding provided by the Kansas Department of Commerce and the Strada Education Foundation.

Two of the five no cost projects may be completed by students currently enrolled in a graduate program offered by any of the seven Kansas public universities. The no cost KMI projects will be available until the current funding is depleted or renewed.

There is also a wide array of learn and earn opportunities for Kansas organizations and career seekers via the Kansas Office of Registered Apprenticeship, which supports apprenticeships across multiple industries.
