<![CDATA[Internship is a learning activity that provides students with opportunities to gain direct experience in a professional work environment. This article aims to describe the implementation of office administration through internship activities at the Regional House of Representatives (DPRD) Office of Merangin Regency. The internship was conducted for approximately 30 days, from July 31 to August 29, 2026. The method used was descriptive through direct practice involving orientation, observation, implementation, evaluation, and report preparation. The results indicate that the implementation of office administration included incoming and outgoing mail management, document filing, administrative digitalization, and meeting preparation and management. Several obstacles were identified, including manual administrative recording, the need for systematic archive management, consistency in digital document storage, and coordination in meeting preparation. The solutions implemented included more accurate and structured mail recording, classification of archives according to types and categories, standardized naming of digital documents, and checking meeting materials and supporting documents before meetings. The internship contributed to improving administrative organization and reducing employees’ administrative workload. In addition, students gained practical skills in document management, technology utilization, communication, coordination, teamwork, discipline, and responsibility. Therefore, internship activities can serve as an effective means of connecting academic knowledge with practical implementation in a government work environment.]]>
