That is very difficult to say, because there are no quotas in terms of which industry these internships are going to be in. They will be in high-demand areas, which includes STEM jobs and it will include the skilled trades.

When we're talking about STEM, for example, it does include software engineers and designers, computer programmers, and web designers. So all of these jobs are included in these internships, but in terms of how many, I will not be able to tell you.
