What is an internship?
An internship is an opportunity to gain work experience abroad in a specific field. An internship can add skills to your CV and set you on the right road to a successful future career. Internships are voluntary and usually unpaid positions. They are designed to give you first-hand experience in your chosen industry.
Get work experience around the world
Becoming an intern on your gap year is the ideal way to get valuable work experience. Having an internship on your CV can help you land your dream job or university course. It can open new doors and pave the way towards a career. An internship is the best way to learn new skills, improve your knowledge and get practical, hands-on experience in your preferred field of work. It's also an incredible way to see the world!
Medical internships abroad
Do you have medical, nursing or healthcare experience? Do you want to help out with medical work on your gap year? Sign up for a medical internship and gain experience in the medical field. Make a difference to rural communities on a Thailand medical internship. Or put your medical skills to good use on a medical internship in Ghana. If you want pre-veterinary experience working with wildlife, sign up for our South African pre-vet programme and help with animal welfare abroad.
