Work Experience
Your First Steps into the Professional World
Work experience is a fundamental part of the program, offering participants their first real insight into the professional world.
Since most participants arrive with little or no Spanish skills, internships are carefully selected to match their abilities and potential. For this reason, positions in offices, hospitals, or other professional fields aligned with long-term career goals are generally not included in the program. Instead, this experience is designed to immerse participants in Spanish culture and provide insights into lifestyles that differ significantly from their own.
The focus is on practical, hands-on activities that promote cultural exchange and personal development.
