"Rarely do I have a book that students find as engaging and useful as I do! Mike's knowledge and long history with the subject matter translates easily to his book and website. I teach an internship course and use this book as the required text. Prior to InternQube being written, I had to find articles or other sources to supplement my weekly topics. Now I just use this text and it is much more efficient, as well as accurate. I don't have to worry about the quality or the source; I know my students are getting excellent advice and strategies. Here is a quote from a student who took the internship course at my college this fall: 'To interns that take this course along with their internship, I suggest reading not only the required text but the entire given book. I found that it really pertained to my experience and it helped to be given advice that I could look back on from time to time.' Cost effective and a quality product. Highly recommend it."

"Mike True’s InternQube: Professional Skills for the Workplace book and website have been well-received by students enrolled in our credit-based internship class. InternQube has engaging as well as relevant content and – because it is such a cost-effective resource – we provide it at no cost to our students. I refer frequently to the book and website for message board postings and other written assignments that help students reflect on what they are experiencing in their internships. That intentional reflection is one of the most important components of effective experiential learning.”

"When I first started reading the book, I was insulted because it seemed basic and 'of course!'…until I went to my internship! I am so glad I had that book with me. It was my bible, and my dictionary, and my encyclopedia."

“I have had great success using the InternQube book in my institution's internship program and the graduate and undergraduate level engineering internship courses I instruct. InternQube is a great tool to supplement orientations and serve as a guide for students during their internships. Besides supplemental reading I use selected text from InternQube as discussion starters in Blackboard. The readings help students to frame my discussion questions and write more insightful responses. This has improved the way I assess student learning. Most importantly the student feedback has been positive and enthusiastic! I usually show the book to students in person and as they glance through the chapter headings they remark at how useful this text will be during their professional careers."
