The Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation propels the equipment finance sector—and its people—forward with its industry-specific knowledge, intelligence and programs. Through free studies, internships and Guest Lecture opportunities, we help people navigate the changes coming up and make better business and personal career decisions. As we look ahead to Fall, there are several ways the Foundation prepares you to make a lasting impact on the equipment finance industry.

In recent months the Foundation has been working with students, faculty and university career- development professionals to elevate industry awareness of the Guest Lecture Program. Now is the time to share your experience by giving a lecture at your local university! The Foundation will provide you with a ready-made presentation developed by industry experts to introduce students to the equipment finance industry. The presentation is customizable, allowing you to share your personal experience. Depending on your audience, the presentation includes additional slides that go in depth on particular subjects (e.g., lease accounting).

Another opportunity to connect with the next generation workforce is via the Foundation’s digital Internship Center. This one-stop online resource provides a platform for students and equipment finance organizations to find each other and make connections. Through the now award-winning Foundation website (2018 Gold AVA Digital Award), ELFA member companies can easily post internships and review student résumés. Post your company’s internship opportunities at www.leasefoundation.org/academic-programs/internship-resources/. Join the Conversation
