The ideal candidate must be in their final year of training at an accredited higher education institution. Those who just completed their tertiary education are also eligible.

Desired competencies
The intern must have an excellent command of spoken and written English. S-he must also demonstrate basic computer skills in Microsoft Office (Word and Excel).
