Paid and Unpaid Internship Contract Template

$275

Bringing interns into your business? Before they start tackling projects, let’s get the legal stuff sorted. Our attorney-drafted, customizable contract templates ensure everything’s crystal clear—from responsibilities to confidentiality—so you can focus on mentoring the next generation without any legal hiccups.

The Details

So, you’re bringing on an intern—congrats! You’re about to have an eager, fresh-faced go-getter ready to learn from you (or at least help with the things you don’t want to do). But before they dive into projects, let’s talk about the details. Are they getting paid or is this an unpaid gig? What’s the duration? Who owns the brilliant ideas they come up with? And let’s not forget about keeping your trade secrets under wraps.

We’ve crafted two distinct, attorney-drafted templates: one for paid internships and another for unpaid ones. Each template covers essential topics like:

  • Internship Term: Clearly define the start and end dates, so there’s no “I thought I was here forever” confusion.
  • Purpose: Lay out the goals and learning objectives, ensuring everyone knows what’s in it for them.
  • Compensation: Specify payment details (if any), so there’s no awkward “So… about my paycheck” moments.
  • Expense Reimbursement: Clarify which expenses you’ll cover, keeping those lunch receipts in check.
  • Responsibilities: Outline what tasks they’ll tackle, setting clear expectations from day one.
  • Confidentiality: Protect your business secrets with solid confidentiality clauses.
  • Intellectual Property: Determine who owns what, especially if your intern comes up with the next big thing.
  • Termination: Establish how either party can gracefully exit the arrangement if needed.
  • And much more!

With step-by-step written guidance, customizing this contract template to fit your unique business is easy-peasy!

I purchased another contract through another company first, and wasn't satisfied. Then, I came across a sale of yours and decided to give it a try. LOVE it. It covers EVERYTHING & more!! I feel safe, covered and like I have no worries for my business in regards to contracts.
Moriah, Photographer
I did not want to pay an attorney hundreds/thousands of dollars to prepare a contract for me. I was happy that the template was so easy to use and that I was able to create a contract quickly. I have made minor modifications, but that agreement has already been used 16 times in the past 7 months!
Lynn, Wedding Planner
I started my business last year and have taken a handful of clients through word of mouth. I’ve been fortunate enough not to have any issues, but after completing my first large scale event under my company name, I knew it was time to ‘go legit’ and make sure my clients and I are both legally covered. It gives me peace of mind to know that I can clearly communicate responsibilities and liabilities to my clients.
Jessica, Event Planner
I saw many coaching agreements by other coaches, but I wanted something with the proper legal wording that would give me enough confidence to protect both me and my clients. [I]t gave me the confidence I needed to proceed with my business.
Tracy, Coach
I loved that your contract was specific to my industry, so I felt much more protected than purchasing a general contract for freelancers/online business owners. As for results, I feel much more confident going to a project with clients knowing I'm legally protected and I feel like I am taken more seriously. I would say to people who are considering purchasing this contract to just go for it. It's probably the most important thing to do before working with clients.
