In addition to service projects, the program exposes high school interns to career and educational opportunities that cover important topics and life skills, such as money management, professional development and business etiquette.

At the end of the program, interns present their final projects to General Motors senior leaders. High school interns are paid as salaried General Motors employees at a rate of $15.00 per hour.
