About BankLEAD

Internships provide students with the opportunity to gain real world experience in settings outside of the classroom. The experience is designed to meet both academic and applied learning goals. The purpose of the BankLEAD Internship Program is to provide a practical and intensive training to individuals who genuinely desire to work in the banking industry. Students will be able to apply information learned in the classroom, build work history, expand professional skillsets and lay the foundation to a career in any professional industry. Banks benefit from this program by gaining fresh ideas from readily equipped interns, completing important projects previously put on hold, and learning creative ways to recruit Indiana’s banking industry to take the next step in creating and expanding a new generation of banking talent. By working together, Indiana’s banking and educational institutions can produce strong leaders for our industry and our state.
