Get Academic Credit for an Internship

Already have an internship? Enroll in an Internship Course to earn academic credit for your internship! Currently enrolled PCC students can receive academic credit for their paid or unpaid internship. Credits earned through the internship course are degree applicable and transferable to the California State University system.

Credit is awarded on the basis of objectives completed and the number of hours worked. Students need a minimum of 54 hours of paid or unpaid hours for each unit of credit. Students must have a prearranged work site and need approval for course enrollment. 

Gather the following documents/information to get approved for an internship course:

1. Internship Offer Letter provided by the Host Organization
2. Internship Information
   • Supervisor’s name, email, and phone number
   • Organization’s name and address
   • Internship start date and end date
   • Total internship hours
