Since 2006, our partner company has helped students find career-related internships around the world, across all fields. They will work with you to help define your ideal internship, provide insight into local opportunities and help find a placement that suits your specific skills, experience, and interests. They’ll also help with logistics, including providing an on-site orientation, and inviting you to local weekly social and cultural events, where you can meet other program participants and experience local culture.
Examples of possible business placements and tasks include, but are not limited to:

Our partner company can arrange a wide-range of opportunities relative to your skill-level and interests.
Internship opportunities are available both for Spanish and non-Spanish speakers. While students with Spanish proficiency have more options available, our partner company can find opportunities according to your level and can also help arrange language classes, if needed or desired.
