OACC's internship program introduces college students to the cooperative business model while providing valuable, hands-on experiences. OACC facilitates the experience for its members who actually host the intern. During May-July, interns have the opportunity to experience all facets of daily operations and management of an agricultural cooperative, including processing, storing, and marketing commodities; consulting on agronomy services such as crop nutrients and crop protection products; operating a feed mill; assisting with inventory, accounting, and invoicing operations; and, most importantly, providing excellent customer service. Interns will also participate in a regional tour, affording an opportunity to see and meet many different regional cooperatives.
