Internships

An internship gives you the real-world experience you want, in the industry you love, within the supportive environment you need. In a competitive job market, an overseas placement gives your résumé an international dimension that’s rare among graduates.

Scholarships up to €1000 available

Finding the right placement

Your internship is built around you and for you. So we’ll match your placement to your field of study, interests and goals.  No cookie-cutter programme here.

We pair students with a small or medium firm in Ireland that supports and challenges them in equal measure. The placement will allow you to work with inspiring professionals, bring your academic knowledge to life, and further your career goals.

What will I learn?

Our internships revolve around learning. Past students describe it like a sandbox: the chance to hone skills, develop new ones, and build confidence, through experimentation and getting out of your comfort zone.

We can provide certified work hours, placement assessments and feedback to satisfy your university’s requirements for academic credit.

Internships also include the mentoring, support and learning goals that are often absent from graduate jobs.

What's Included:

Airfare, materials for placement, mandatory health insurance, visa fees (vary on host-country) and spending money aren’t included.

Costs

We’re small, which helps us keep our fees competitive despite the fully customised programme we offer each student.

For additional costs please visit here:

There’s an application fee of €95 and a participant commitment fee of €500 that are both non-refundable.

Airfare, materials for placement, mandatory health insurance, meals (vary by host-country), visa fees (vary on host-country) and spending money aren’t included.

Professional Development Course

Learn International is dedicated to the commitment of lifelong learning. As such, your internship programme will include up to a €50 stipend towards enrolment onto a professional development course of your choosing to enroll in and complete while you’re on your internship.
