Great internship program!
April 01, 2025by: Annabel S - United KingdomProgram: Barcelona Internships with Beyond AcademyI have really enjoyed my time in Barcelona on the Beyond Academy internship program! Our community coordinator, Isabel, was excellent, she was always on hand to help and led some fantastic community events that helped us discover parts of the city we wouldn't have otherwise & experience typical events like flamenco and tapas! The community aspect is great to meet other interns on the program and is well-organised. My internship was not completely as expected, something that was not the fault of Beyond, and Beyond worked hard to provide appropriate solutions and support throughout this so my program was still meaningful to my professional growth. They also run a careers workshop and 1-to-1 meeting during your program, which were great to supplement your internship. Interning abroad is such a fun, worthwhile & exciting opportunity, so I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested! Thank you to the Beyond Academy team, especially to Isabel & Olivia!! ?✨
Do it!
April 01, 2025by: Jason G - CanadaProgram: Tokyo Internships with Beyond AcademyI just concluded a 6 month program, and I can solidly say it was one of the best decisions I've made. Sure, the cost is not cheap but it's still a better deal than other similar programs, and after meeting other interns from other companies that offer internships in Japan, I can say with confidence I'm very glad I went with Beyond. The support was amazing, and I loved the coordinators, especially Stephanie and Olivia, who were there the entire duration of my program. I will be honest, what you get out of this is what you make of it, so as long as you're dedicated and set on having a once in a lifetime experience, you're going to be glad you chose this!
The most influential period of my life
March 12, 2025by: Christina Germino - United StatesProgram: London Internships with Beyond AcademyThis internship really changed my life in ways I couldn’t have predicted. I had the idea that it would be constant fun, constantly doing things and waves of excitement and learning. But it was a combination of those things, but it came with a lot more difficulties than I expected. However, I actually think that it was vital for my growth as a person and it turns out I’m grateful for them. I also got a full time job offer and I wouldn’t have been able to accomplish that had I not taken this chance. I will be forever grateful for it

I had studied abroad in London as a sophomore in college and was absolutely dying to go back as a graduate. But the thing that made me want to do an internship post-grad was feeling like I wasn't ready to move from the classroom to the workroom quite yet.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
The role of community coordinator is about helping younger people find their own pathway. It feels great when I see how we impact someone's experience and make it even greater. This inspired me to work for an organization like Beyond Academy where I use my my previous background and skills to contribute to to someone’s future
