This agreement is for unpaid 24/7 Intern / Superstar / Team Member positions. If you are a paid employee of 24/7 Teach, your terms are set by your offer letter and employment paperwork — please don’t sign this form.
As a 24/7 Intern/Superstar/Team Member, I agree to perform the services, complete the learning projects, and meet the performance requirements described in the 24/7 Intern/Superstar/Team Member position posts that I applied for.
I understand this agreement does not create a partnership nor employment relationship with 24/7 Teach and 24/7 Education Inc. As an 24/7 Intern/Superstar/Team Member, I acknowledge that I am considered an unpaid trainee that does not have authority to enter into contracts on 24/7 Teach and 24/7 Education Inc.'s behalf.
I commit to completing the time and activity requirements described in the 24/7 Intern/Superstar/Team Member position posts that I applied for. As part of my successful completion I understand that I will receive:
- Certificate of completion
- Authorization to list 24/7 Teach as a previous position/employer
- The ability to build a portfolio of real-world work proving my practical experience
- A letter of recommendation
- A LinkedIn recommendation
- Access to the 24/7 Hall of Fame (Alumni) Network
- 30-day free access to our 24/7 Career Development Programs and Services
Organizational Standards - our foundation:
- Deadlines: Give a 1 hour notice if you can’t meet a deadline.
- Communication: Return communication within 12 hours.
- Team: Everyone owns the results of the team.
- Time: Honor other people’s time, be prepared!
- Fun: Have fun and make sure you are taking care of yourself.
- Value: Add value to yourself, the organization, and others.
Accountability Standards:
We need everyone to take ownership and be accountable to each other, and because of that, we have instituted the following expectations:
You have “three strikes” prior to termination, with warnings/corrective measures implemented as following:
- First strike: verbal warning followed-up with written acknowledgment;
- Second strike: formal written warning;
- Third strike: probation to begin with mentor assigned.
If accountability and performance are not improved after the agreed-upon probationary period, the 24/7 Intern/Superstar/Team Member’s participation will end.
These steps are guidelines only. Your supervisor or manager will use their discretion, along with 24/7 Teach leadership, in addressing conduct or performance issues, and may use only some of the steps above depending on the situation.
Both parties will work together at each stage to try and correct the issue since we all want everyone to succeed. Team Members are encouraged to ask for help if they feel they are not able to perform.
Separately from the steps above, 24/7 Teach may end a 24/7 Intern/Superstar/Team Member’s participation immediately, without prior strikes, for gross or serious misconduct — including any violation of the Standards of Conduct set out in the next section, which apply to everyone working with 24/7 Teach regardless of role. Those conduct standards apply to you. The 24/7 Education Handbook’s employment, pay, benefits, and separation provisions do not, because this is not an employment relationship.
Standards of Conduct:
These are the conduct standards that apply to everyone working with 24/7 Teach, in any role. They are reproduced from the 24/7 Education Handbook (§9:3, Standards of Conduct). This list is not exhaustive, but engaging in any of the following may end your participation, depending on the severity of the action:
- Violating company policies, including but not limited to conflict of interest, harassment, discrimination, violence prevention, drug-free workplace, confidentiality, criminal conviction, computer, internet, and email, and 24/7 Education’s Code of Conduct.
- Being intoxicated or under the influence of a controlled substance while at work. Possession or use of alcohol or a controlled substance in any quantity during work hours, except medications prescribed by a physician which do not impair work performance.
- Aggressive, threatening, antagonistic, obscene, or abusive language/conduct toward any supervisor/manager, employee, client, or vendor.
- Sabotage, intentional misuse, destruction or breaking of Company tools, machines, products, or property of another employee.
- Dishonesty, falsification, misrepresentation, or alteration of personnel and/or any Company records, including but not limited to the alteration of email communication.

- Sleeping during working hours on Company premises or in performance of job responsibilities.
- Refusing to obey instructions properly issued by management pertaining to your work; refusal to help on a special assignment.
