Code Access Foundation connects students with meaningful computer science internship opportunities, with a focus on those who may not otherwise have access to these experiences.

We work to bridge the gap between capable students and organizations that are open to investing in emerging talent.

Who This Is For

This program is designed for students who:

  • Have an interest in computer science, software development, or technology
  • May not have access to traditional internship pipelines
  • Are seeking real-world experience to build skills and confidence

We prioritize students from under-resourced schools and communities, but all applicants are evaluated based on interest, effort, and readiness.

What We Offer

We support students throughout the internship process, from preparation to placement.

Students receive:

  • Access to internship opportunities through our partner network
  • Resume and application support
  • Interview preparation
  • Ongoing guidance during the internship experience

Our goal is not just placement, but successful participation and skill development.

Types of Opportunities

Internships may include:

  • Software development
  • Web development
  • Data and analytics support
  • IT and systems support
  • Technical project assistance

Opportunities may be remote, hybrid, or in-person depending on the partner organization.

What We Expect From Students

This is not a passive program. Students are expected to:

  • Show consistent effort and follow through
  • Communicate professionally
  • Be open to learning and feedback
  • Commit to the duration of the internship

We treat this as a professional opportunity, not a trial experience.

For Organizations

We partner with companies, nonprofits, and teams that are open to providing structured, entry-level technical experiences for students.

We support our partners by:

  • Screening and preparing students
  • Setting clear expectations
  • Remaining available throughout the internship period
