Pros

Extern offers a wide variety of externships that provide students with access to research opportunities with different firms, like Schreiber Foods and Canva. Program managers are all friendly and accessible, and resources are usually very thorough. Externships from the platform are an excellent way of getting some professional experience that looks good on resumes and teaches students valuable skills that can be applied in the workforce.

Cons

While the majority of resources provided during externship projects are useful, some could be improved to effectively facilitate students' understanding of the project. Some wording on modules could also be amended to avoid confusion.
