How to prepare for internship

I am going to have an ER internship over the summer. I am on top of all news, events and already know my analysts' coverage. However, my main concern is my lack of technical knowledge. What are the most important skills I should be focused on?

I'd say know how to read company files (10K, 10Q, etc) and quickly apply the acquired knowledge to fundamental analysis. Being on top of the news in the industry to read the trend is also important.
