Before you sign up as an Intern within the Academy, consider carefully whether this type of learning environment is right for you. While the Academy offers vetted resources, peer support, and Drupal mentors who will provide you with guidance and feedback, the experience is largely self-directed and geared to self-starters who are motivated to set their own goals and work toward their performance objectives at their own pace.

Also, as we say around here, “It is hard to collaborate alone!” Therefore, the expectation is that Interns will assume a very active role in their own performance improvement, as well as in the support of others. This includes establishing personal performance goals, participating in Academy activities and supporting others in the community during live web cast sessions and in the Intern Forum.
