About this internship certificate template
Universities ask students for an internship certificate to give credit for the placement, and future employers ask to see it with the CV. This format confirms the intern's name, degree and university, the department and exact dates, the projects they worked on, their supervisor and their conduct.

Tips for internship certificates
State the duration
Universities often need a minimum number of weeks. Write the weeks as well as the dates.
Name real projects
"Tested the Android app and wrote 40 test cases" helps the intern far more than "assisted the team".
Check the university's format
Some universities supply their own form. Use it alongside this certificate if they do.
Paid or unpaid
If the intern needs it for a visa or scholarship, add a line saying whether the internship was paid and the stipend amount.
