This sample weekly schedule is an estimation of how interns will spend their time in any given week. UCC staff and interns are expected to work at least 37.5 hours per week according to their employment contract with the University. However, at times during the year staff and interns will work 40 or more hours per week due to participating in after-hours outreach or managing after-hours crises. Interns need to be mindful of logging enough hours to complete the internship and should speak with their supervisor or the Assistant Director of Training about structuring their schedule in order to achieve this.
