What to include in an internship certificate
A college, a placement cell or a future employer should see at a glance who interned, where, for how long and on what. Seven elements answer that.
| Element | What to write |
|---|---|
| Letterhead | The organisation's name, logo, address and contact details. A law chamber or a small NGO can use a simple printed header. |
| Intern's name and course | Full name, course, year and college, spelled exactly as the student gives them to you. |
| Team and role | The department and the intern's title, for example Marketing Intern or Legal Research Intern. |
| Dates and hours | Start and end dates. For part-time or remote internships, add the hours worked each week. |
| Work done | Two or three lines on the projects, tasks and tools, with one result in numbers if you have it. |
| Supervisor and performance | Who guided the intern, and one line on attendance and performance. |
| Signatory, place and date | The supervisor, the HR head or the advocate, with their typed name and designation under a line signed by hand. |
