Federal Agencies

Providing highly qualified candidates to build the Federal pipeline.

Unparalleled Capability and Convenience

We attract and distill a diverse pool of talented student interns from across the country to precisely match your agency's specific needs. As the oldest and most established internship program of its kind, with more than 400 public and private partner universities in the United States, we have the infrastructure and networks to provide your agency with qualified and highly capable intern candidates.

Our programs can complement the federal Pathways Program, but do not require guaranteed employment for interns. Diversity—of race, gender, and ability as well as religious, geographic, and socioeconomic backgrounds—is a hallmark of our programs. And we make your job easier by handling all the details of providing a pool of the most qualified candidates.

Flexible Partnership Approaches

GSA Multiple Award Schedule Contract

Federal agencies can easily partner with us and minimize contracting requirements through a Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) or a Simple Acquisition. The Washington Center holds a Multiple Award Schedule Contract with the General Services Administration. Our GSA Contract number is 47QRAA24D001N.

To work through the GSA Contract, a contracting officer must complete a purchase order, identify the funding amount, include our GSA Contract number (47QRAA24D001N), and e-mail the information directly to  FederalRelations@twc.edu.

    Direct Contracts

    We can also facilitate larger federal programs through competitive bid contracts negotiated with individual federal partners. Together we can design programs that target the specific needs and priorities within your agency.

    Grants (Cooperative Agreements)

    Multiple federal agencies partner with us through cooperative agreements. These grant dollars allow agencies to implement programs that align to their particular mission and develop the next generation of qualified professionals.
