Vietnam Virtual Internships | Vietnam

The heart of the community is Vietnamese college students who are going to be the future leaders of the nation. We realize that the youth in South East Asia’s developing countries, young Vietnamese included, have limited chances of going overseas to view the world. For many of them, a trip abroad is likely to be a distant dream. That urges us to bring YOU, international students from different parts of the world to our region.
