Professional training workshop

We provide two career-boosting workplace skills workshops focusing on many areas including professional development and core communication skills required to succeed in any environment.

Session 1: How to get the most out of your international experience?

In this first workshop, we share everything we’ve learned during our years of experience as the leading provider of internship programs to prepare interns for a successful and rewarding internship. We’ve learned what our interns need to know to succeed. In this session, we introduce key themes such as the growth mindset, the formula for success and the learning zone.

Session 2: How to market your international experience

In this workshop, we prepare our interns for their next steps, whether that’s applying for jobs, grad school or another route. We help interns to articulate their international story, develop their personal brand and prepare for interviews.
