Content Intern Required: STEP, MAT, PAT, ENGAA, NSAA, TSA, BMAT, UKCAT
This is NOT your standard internship!
As a content intern, you will be instrumental in creating UniPrepCo’s online resources.

What you’ll be doing:
– thinking critically about how best to present complex ideas in a simple manner
– creating video tutorials (think Khan Academy) for your subject or exam of choice
– creating interactive online activities to support student learning
– writing your own questions and tutorials to help future applicants
– collaborating with the CEO and your mentor to define learning objectives, design and write materials
– using your expertise of these exams and university life to write helpful blog posts or emails to future students
You’ll work closely with the CEO and an assigned mentor, helping to create resources that will help HUNDREDS of students in the future, and you will get to work on projects that match your interests!
