• Interns are given a mentor – someone they can ask questions and that will help them understand how to handle all situations that a supervisor could encounter
  
• Distribution Management interns will spend time performing the daily tasks within a department to gain an understanding of what it takes to manage, motivate, and lead people within the department
  
• Interns participate in weekly training classes, have projects they own throughout the summer
