THE Department of Environmental Affairs invites young, South African graduates aged between 18 and 35 years, and who have a keen interest in environmental careers, to apply for a two-year internship programme run between 2019 and 2021.
The programmes will expose the qualified yet inexperienced graduates to work experience, with an aim to bridge the gap between academic study and competent performance in the workplace.
