Internship Program: Program Features

Academic Features

The internship program provides an intensive language course in a centric specialized language academy upon your arrival. This course will prepare you for cultural immersion socially, linguistically and professionally.

Professional Features

Following the language course you will begin your internship in your chosen sector. We work with around 300 participating firms, both medium and international sized, in all fields of interest. Each one offers a unique and memorable opportunity. See the section Fields and Firms for examples of companies and NGOs we have worked with in the last year.

Cultural and Social Features

• The cultural services provided by this program include membership in a popular free time activities club in Madrid. Almost every weekend there are excursions at student prices which most participants take advantage of. You will find out why Spain is the most visited country in the world for long-term tourism and why Spain has so many monuments listed by the United Nations as World Heritage sites.
• In Brussels there is an extensive cultural activities program where you will have the opportunity to make many friends.
• Besides the organized activities program we can also recommend you read these guides to help you prepare for what to expect culturally on this program: Turin, Genoa, Bologna.
• Many of the cultural activities are free: concerts, walking tours, interchanges, lectures, exhibits. etc. BEST Language Services has very close ties with the worlds of art, music and travel. These afford us inside information which we regularly pass on to our Intern Program participants.
