I want to create a massive internship program. Something like $15-20/hr for 3 months, you get a Lambda School grad to intern for you. If you like them you can bring them on FT at a full salary. Would you be interested in something like that?

So true. Even an "apprenticeship" can devolve into a very poor internship. Even the most highly motivated student won't be successful (depending on definition) if the company doesn't have the ability/infrastructure to set them up for success. That's the problem I want to fix.

What I'm saying is people in the US use "apprenticeship" and "internship" interchangeably

Agreed. Though they shouldn't. Both length of time and goal should be different, imho. Internship = shorter, lots of learning by osmosis. Apprenticeship = longer, coached, mentored. Apprenticeships should be seen as investment w/ ROI. You're right though, interchangeable atm.
