Internships Worldwide, a subsidiary of Clubclass English Language School, originated as a side service offering internship placements alongside our main English language courses. Recognizing the growing importance of this service over the past five years, we decided to establish Internships Worldwide as a dedicated, professional company. This transition allows us to project a more serious and professional image, with a team solely focused on internship placements. By doing so, we aim to enhance our commitment to providing high-quality internship experiences while continuing to benefit from the strong foundation and reputation built by Clubclass.

3. How has the recent advancement of AI impacted your organisation and the internship industry, particularly regarding language learning integration in internship programmes?

The recent advancement of AI has had an impact on Internships Worldwide as it allows interns to improve their language skills at their own pace and focus on areas that they need to work on. This also helps to create immersive language learning experiences where they can practice their language skills in an interactive environment and prepare them to work effectively across multicultural teams. The advancement of AI has helped our interns contribute to a more inclusive and diverse internship allowing them to develop valuable skills from different linguistic backgrounds and contribute effectively to their organization.

4. How does Internships Worldwide prioritise diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) within its internship placements?

Internships Worldwide prioritizes diversity, equity and inclusion within its internship placements by collaborating with a wide range of companies that value DEI and create inclusive work environments. Internships Worldwide implements an inclusive selection process that values the diversity of each applicant and continuously support the interns throughout their experience where they can feel valued and respected. In addition, we regularly evaluate our processes to identify areas of improvement related to DEI and strive to create opportunities that are beneficial to all participants regardless of their background or circumstances.
