Hello there, hope you are doing good.

I would like to tell you that there are a few major differences between training and internship such as -

  • Training is based on improving the skills and knowledge of the trainee whereas internship is more focused on letting the person gain practical knowledge about the field.
  • Training is carried out by companies to allow people to enhance the performance and productivity whereas internship is aimed towards giving the person a real world experience about the work
  • Training is always paid whereas internships can be unpaid as well.

Hope you found this answer helpful.

Good luck for your future!

Hello there
The differences are as follows:
Although both training and internship are the same in the context that they both enhance you skill set and put the knowledge gained to practical use. But still, there is a world of difference between the two.

Internship is like a period before real job where students get to apply the knowledge they have gained through the course of their education practically. On the other hand, Training is like a skill acquisition program where the employer guides the candidate in acquiring a particle skill set which is required your domain of work. It is more like an educational program where the emphasis is laid on practical learning than theoretical knowledge.

Training is given only when a person is hired by a company or is already working with the company for some time. After training is over the candidate will be a permanent employee of the company. Whereas there is no such contract between an intern and the company. At the end of the internship the candidate can either be given job contract or be rejected.

Internships can be paid as well as unpaid. It entirely depends upon the organization in which the candidate is working. While during training the candidate is on the companys payroll and is paid according to the contract.

The duration of training is purely subjected to the company and can vary from 15-20 days to anywhere up to 2-3 months. In the case of Internship, the duration is lengthier than training can be up to 2-3 months. In some cases, it can even be up to 12 months long.

Hope this information helps you.
Good luck!!
