Internship becomes a way to grow human resource capabilities in terms of competencies on knowledge or practical and soft skills. Higher education institutions like universities as the organizers of an internship program certainly have some roles to produce capable, intelligent and professional workforce. Therefore, it is undeniable that a good internship program in university is an important stage in the development of quality human resources. Our research aims to uncover the description of the system of organizing internships at university level, in order to obtain a comprehensive picture of the program's objectives in preparation for students to enter the workforce life. In this research, we also specifically portrayed the management of internships at the best ex-LPTK (Lembaga Pendidikan Tenaga Kependidikan) universities in Indonesia, as the institutions whose mission is to produce graduates as teaching staff/academics along with practitioners. We use mixed-method to earn our data from lecturers, superintendents and staffs of internship programs as well as the students at ex-LPTK universities. Overall, the internship programs at these universities have been managed with the orientation on the interests of students, have adopted the use of technology, and are evaluated routinely based on feedback from internal and external parties of the university. The lack of internship and the organization of the mentoring system conducted by the lecturers become the major deficiencies in organizing internships at the universities. These can be used as a basis to put on efforts to improve the internship system at the university level, especially in Indonesia.

The Covid-19 pandemic currently requires students and lecturers in various fields (including accounting) to adapt to the new normal life. This also has an impact on maximizing the use of technology as the main learning media, not least on internship activities by the students. Given the large contribution of the internship activities, the university should develop adequate facilities to maintain the process of supervision of the internship activities of the lecturers to the students they guide. Through the data we collected by surveys and in-depth interviews within accounting students who were taking part in internship activities in the Covid-19 pandemic era, this paper provides suggestions on design for platform websites as a medium for implementing technological-based internship. We believe that the website design that we are proposing will be appropriate for higher education institutions such as universities that are looking for the best solutions for internship activities for accounting students in new normal life.
