Objectives

Through this internship abroad, students will have the opportunity to break outside the walls of the classroom. They will gain a lot of practical knowledge, more than what they learn through role-plays and simulations during classes. For some students, this will motivate them and give them the desire to continue their studies. Students will come into contact with other cultures, they will be challenged to express themselves in other languages, and they will further develop their social skills.

Background

Due to the lack of quality internships near our rural school, not all students get equal learning opportunities. Some students are less motivated because they cannot link theory with practice. Also, keeping up with the rapid evolutions in the business world is difficult for us as a school. We also see a learning opportunity in the area of acquiring intercultural competencies and expanding students' language skills in an international context.
