Professional Immersion Experience in Mumbai

The overall experience was extremely valuable along with the opportunities to do and see many things. The group which I attended the internship with was amazing. From the off the group and I were immediately immersed into the culture and way of life. The experience was unique as I had no expectations and it was my first time in Asia. It gave me invaluable transferable skills for the future and memories which I can never forget. It taught me to live in the present and not the future, neither the past.

The whole trip was great. We were able to learn a lot as well as have free time to organise our time. We had constant support and staff on hand for any help before and during the trip.
My favourite memory was the Apprentice Style Challenge. I also enjoyed visiting the village. The village was a welcoming atmosphere and brought the team closer. I learnt alot about about Indian culture. The apartment we stayed in was also safe and secure.

My trip to Mumbai was nothing short of amazing! Before leaving for the trip I was nervous as I had never experienced a country or culture like India before. However, the staff and group were incredible at making me feel safe and confident throughout the experience. I particularly liked how raw the trip was, we saw the REAL Mumbai, covering all that the city represents and offered. Personally, I believe the slum tour left the greatest impression on me once the trip was over. This was an eye opening and life changing experience that shaped me as a person once returning to the U.K. I strongly believe that this experience has added a impressive advantage to my CV and career prospects and has been a great talking point in interviews!

I strongly recommend this programme to anyone that wants to experience a fast paced, vibrant culture and who wishes to build great employability skills!

A trip of a LIFETIME

I never realised how much you can do and learn in 10 days. The experience was well balanced with professional workshops and engagements to also having a good amount of free time to explore Mumbai and really understanding the culture that exists in India.

The Pave staff were so helpful and friendly throughout the process which made everyones experience that much better as we all felt safe and secure.

Overall it was an unforgettable experience. The accommodation was so much fun and I managed to meet so many different people, some of whom I still remain in contact with!

I learnt so much on this programme and experienced India in a way I never even thought possible. I felt safe the whole time I was there and enjoyed my time out there. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable and this made the experience even greater. I would definitely recommend this programme to other people. This programme gave me a whole new look at India and I’m excited to visit again one day.
