MOU status: DoD MOU current through June 5, 2027.

What these labels mean

MOU active: An MOU is the agreement between an employer and the SkillBridge program. When it expires, the employer has to renew it before it can take new service members.
MOU expires soon: The agreement ends within 90 days. That is not a reason to rule a program out. It is a reason to ask the employer where the renewal stands.
MOU expired: The date on the government listing has passed. We still show the program, because hiding it would shrink this directory in a way we could not explain. Confirm status with the employer before you apply.
MOU date not stated: The government listing carries no expiration date for this organization.
Detailed listing: The employer filled in most of its record: length, delivery method, eligibility, and a description of the work.
Partial listing: Some of those fields are filled in and some are blank.
Sparse listing: Very little of the record is filled in. That is common, and it is not a judgment about the program or the employer. It does mean you will have to ask them more questions directly.

Dates come from the government SkillBridge export. We do not screen, rank, or endorse organizations, and we take nothing from them.

Its work spans technologies including control systems, video conferencing, digital signage, direct-view LED, sound systems, IT networks, lighting systems, security systems, and Microsoft Teams Rooms.

The company's SkillBridge program operates across 14 locations in 4 states: Colorado, Maryland, Oklahoma, and Texas. All positions are in-person and safety-sensitive. The program offers two tracks. The Installation Technician track places interns in hands-on low-voltage commercial AV work, including pulling and terminating cable, assembling racks and patch bays, integrating system components, and installing LED and LCD video walls, touch panels, and speakers. Interns in this track work toward DOT and OSHA 10 certifications and may travel for installations across the country.

The Job Superintendent track is structured for interns with prior leadership or construction management experience. In that role, interns oversee commercial AV installation projects from planning through completion, lead field technicians, interpret blueprints and schematics, manage schedules and safety compliance, maintain project documentation, and serve as the primary on-site point of contact for quality and client coordination. OSHA 30 and CTS certifications are preferred for that track. The superintendent internship runs 91 to 120 days.
