For Internship Companies

Workplace learning (internship) is an essential part of every vocational (MBO) student’s education. Internship companies play a crucial role in preparing students to complete their MBO programme. During an internship, students develop their — often hidden — skills and talents and become familiar with the professional field. For socially engaged companies, offering an internship can be beneficial by bringing in a fresh perspective or even finding future employees. If you are willing to serve as an internship company, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please fill out the form and we will contact you gladly.
