Document background
The Internship Learning Agreement serves as a critical document in the United States for structuring and formalizing internship programs that comply with federal and state regulations. This agreement is particularly important in light of the Department of Labor's 'Primary Beneficiary Test' which determines whether an internship qualifies as a legitimate educational experience. It outlines specific learning objectives, evaluation criteria, and responsibilities while protecting the interests of all parties involved. The document is essential for both paid and unpaid internships, especially when academic credit is involved, and helps organizations maintain compliance with FLSA requirements.
