Best Remote Internships with Academic Credit

My experience was unique because it was flexible and laidback. Plus, the environment was positive. I enjoyed meeting with the coordinator at the times that worked for me. Also, the fact that I got the chance to learn about another culture’s values and beliefs. This internship is something that enables me to build myself professionally and personally, and it’s something that I recommend to students and non-students. Overall, this experience is worth it and I wouldn’t mind doing it again. I enjoyed so much.

Working as an intern in penetration testing, this has made my experience unique; the reason being due to this collaborative team environment. Support and sharing knowledge within a team helped me a lot during my learning process. I appreciated how open each one was to questions and eager to help anyone to further improvement.

This will also help future participants understand that they get to learn more by practically experiencing things rather than merely reading about them. The more exposure I got to a variety of situations and advice from experienced professionals the greater the learning on both personal and professional levels. I would like to recommend to future interns that they should be more interactive, ask for help whenever needed, and not miss any opportunity to learn whatsoever.

Intern Abroad HQ connected me with a wonderful local team in India of dedicated professionals in psychology. The coordinator and supervisor were both sweet and they check in with you regularly. They are a great, supportive team. Through this experience, I gained a variety of valuable skills in my desired field. I was able to learn practical skills that will help excel in the future. I'm grateful for the opportunity to work with such a supportive team and for Intern Abroad HQ's well-structured programs. I highly recommend their programs to students who are eager to take on an enriching and fulfilling internship experience abroad!

My internship through Intern Abroad was a truly rewarding experience. I gained valuable knowledge and skills while contributing to a meaningful organization. I really appreciated the supportive and collaborative work environment at the organization and I felt encouraged to ask questions and take on new challenges. I would definitely recommend this internship to anyone interested in microfinance or community banking projects in the development space. The support from Intern Abroad was exceptionally and I would highly recommend them.

I wholeheartedly recommend the remote internship with V2 Volunteer and Vacation, centered on "Child & Youth Mental Health."

Throughout my 3-week experience, I crafted and presented a 20-minute workshop tailored for Jamaican students aged 11 to 15. This distinctive project delves into cultural nuances surrounding mental health conversations in Jamaica. My workshop defines mental health within the local context, emphasizes its importance for youth, and addresses stigmas. It also covers recognizing the signs of those who are struggling and provides details about crisis helplines and local resources.

Witnessing the impact of open mental health discussions when sharing the workshop with teachers was incredibly fulfilling. Guided by my supervisor, Jade, this experience enriched me with valuable skills and cultural awareness, beneficial for my future career in child therapy.

In a nutshell, this transformative internship equips you with practical skills, cultural sensitivity, and mentorship. If you're passionate about mental health advocacy and youth well-being, or if you're aspiring to work in fields like children's counseling or social work, this opportunity is truly invaluable.

My #1 favorite memory from the internship was my second meeting with my supervisor. During this meeting, they told me their experience as a Arab-Palestinian Israeli citizen. The story was raw, sometimes tragic, sometimes triumphant, always inspiring. Overall, it served to bond the two of us early-on, which boosted our success and compatibility down the road. My internship role was to perform extensive research on a recent election and write a report on the reactions to it. This included assessing media and press from across the world, across every demographic and to the most extreme points of the political spectrum and everywhere in between. The written report I formulated informs the organization for which I work on global thoughts on the election that recently rocked their country. This internship has aligned in every way with my long-term goals. Not only does participation in an internship boost my chances of entering university (one part of my goals), but it also makes me all the better suited to my dream field of study: international relations. As a human rights and anti-racism internship, the global perspective, research skills, compassion, and critical thinking skills that accompany this project is ideal preparation for not only an academic, but professional career in the field. Working with an issue as complicated as the one featured in my internship (the Israeli-Palestinian conflict) is excellent training in listening to multiple sides of a story, a critical skill in any diplomatic position, which I aspire to one day hold. Moreover, the type/form/style of written report required in this internship is one I will certainly have to perform frequently in my long-term goals, and is therefore a great source of practice.

The remote internship was a wonderful experience because I was able to explore a particular area of my studies which I am very interested in, in an exciting context! I loved working with the team and was very well supported by the staff. I found communicating with the team very easy, despite the remote nature of the internship. I look forward to continuing my work with the AIMC this year and potentially in future years to come. I would recommend this internship to anyone with a passion for conservation or law.

My internship experience has been great! I felt comfortable talking to my supervisor and my team and I communicated well despite the language barrier between us. I was very impressed with the level of commitment from my supervisor and internship placement. Upon receiving my very first task, I could see that they were well-prepared and organized, and were ready to answer any of my questions and concerns. The most important task I was involved in was report writing, and other skills that I learnt along the way included communicating with clients. My internship experience went a long way in developing my time management and communication skills. All these skills work in both the short term and the long term, as the long-term goal of the organization I was paired with was to build multicultural relationships and gain expertise from other countries, so I helped in expanding the knowledge and expertise of the company in this regard. I am currently training to be a consultant in the field of occupational safety and health, and now I am qualified in terms of my degree, and my practical experience from this placement.
