The program introduces interns to the Doyon family of companies and provides an opportunity to obtain practical, hands-on work experience in their fields of study.

Demientieff had this to say about his internship, “I had a great time here and I felt welcome. It was a great opportunity to learn more about my field and be involved with Doyon more. Moving forward I will continue to do my best and further myself at Doyon.”
