Internships Beyond Borders
Kristen Talks About Her Environmental Internship
“”Beyond Academy has made it very easy for us to live abroad! I found the career coach Chloë to be extremely helpful – after my session with her I have a much better understanding of what I want for my career in the future. Beyond Academy held my hand throughout the entire process. There was never a moment I felt too overwhelmed or too nervous as they’ve taken care of all the stress involved, allowing me to fully focus on the experience itself. ”
