As a parent, sending your child abroad for an internship can be a daunting prospect. You want to make sure they are safe, supported, and have the opportunity to have a truly enriching experience.
That's where Island Internships comes in. We understand the concerns that come with sending your child abroad.
That's why we have put measures in place to ensure their safety and well-being during their time on the beautiful island of Lombok, Indonesia.
From carefully selected housing and insurance options, to a dedicated emergency support team available 24/7, we have got your child covered.
We have your child's best interest at heart.
The benefits go far beyond practical support.
Your child will stand out in today's competitive job market!
Employers view international experience as a valuable asset, as it proves adaptability, cultural competency, and language skills. But let’s put that into numbers.
A study by NAFSA found that students who study abroad are much more likely to receive job offers, especially because 94% of employers prefer to hire candidates with international experience.
In fact, the Institute of International Education shows that students who go abroad are 2x more likely to be employed within 12 months of graduation.
If that was not enough, GeoBlue found that they also have an average of $7,000 more salary per year compared to their non-study abroad peers.
Boost
The opportunities that come with abroad work experiences and professional development make sure that your child achieves their desired career goals. However, educational goals are just as important.
That’s why all of our host companies conform with all university regulation and requirements in case they need to complete research papers or other projects during their internship.
On a personal level, living and working abroad allows your child to immerse themselves in a new culture and gain a life-changing perspective on the world. This leads to increased happiness and overall quality of life.
AIFS found that 85% of students who studied abroad reported personal growth, and 87% said that studying abroad had a positive impact on their career.
Will my child be safe?
Yes! Lombok is known for being Safe & Welcoming
Lombok, Indonesia is a particularly unique and enriching destination that offers your child a level of safety and comfort that you want as a caring parent.
Located just a short ferry ride away from the popular island of Bali, Lombok has a reputation for being a safe and welcoming place to visit.
Its beautiful beaches, stunning natural landscapes, and rich cultural traditions make it the closest thing we have to paradise on earth.
Your child will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in Lombok’s unique culture & participate in Indonesian activities to learn about traditional crafts.
These skills, along with their international experience, are invaluable to stand out in today’s job market.
