Process
- The Intern must have the CMA member and the Human Resources Director at the host company sign their completed Registration Form.
- The Intern is to write a brief essay about their experience and what they have learned. The CMA EF might publish the entire or parts of the essay in an annual report, on its website or in the CMA newsletter.
- Before the end of a student’s internship with a maritime company or within 30 days of the end of the internship, the Intern sends the Registration Form and their essay to Beth@cma-edu.org.
- Once the Registration Form and essay has been reviewed, Beth will call the Intern to receive their Social Security Number and then stipend will be forwarded directly to the Intern via wire transfer.
- The stipend is $300 a week for up to 4 weeks, $1,200 max per year.
