Program Reviews

I’d wanted to travel to South Korea for a very long time but was always too nervous to go by myself. As a recent graduate that is looking to begin my career in my chosen industry but also take some time for myself to travel, Beyond Academy provided the perfect opportunity for me to not only find work experience in another country and experience work culture there, but visit my dream destination and be surrounded by kind and helpful people. I really recommend this program to solo travellers or people wanting experience working in other countries but aren’t a quite sure how to do it! Beyond Academy also plans lots of events and group activities so that even though you’re working, you still feel like you have seen all the sights and done lots of fun things during your internship! It is also a great way to make friends and find a warm community of people to make your stay much more enjoyable!

My time at Beyond Academy has been one of the best I've had so far! I was in Seoul for a little over two months and it was great! The people from Beyond were so nice and it felt like they were there for us 24/7. We also did things together besides the events and in my case I was able to make some great new friends!

My internship was a huge success and I was able to make a huge leap forward in my career. I did an internship as a fashion designer and made some lovely new contacts that will be really helpful in the future. In addition to the internship, it was also possible for me to visit my old internship place in Paris at a trade fair! I can only recommend Beyond Academy to anyone who is open to something new and wants to pursue a career abroad because it really is a huge springboard!

I’ve been staying in Sydney for 10 weeks and it has been the best 10 weeks in my life. I’ve learned so much and meet so many great people! Sydney is an amazing city and the diverse culture is so unique and special. I am gonna miss this city and the people that I’ve meet. The experience that I’ve received is something that is going to help me forever. Because of the fun events beyond academy always planned, I’ve never felt alone and had something to laugh ever week. I am so happy I did this internship and I would do it over and over again.

A lot of social events! Got to do a lot around Sydney! Although the host company was small, it was directly related to my industry choice.

I signed up late, but my admissions tutor was supportive and helped me match a company before the start date! They communicated with me throughout the whole process and did their best to match me with a desired company. The support team in Sydney was amazing throughout the two-month experience! I would recommend this program to anyone considering an internship abroad!

My journey allowed me to gain professional experience in a city as robust and diverse as London, which was a great learning experience getting to meet so many different people as well as work with them on projects and developing strategies to help improve the operational side of the business. Initially I kept to myself as I was relatively new to the company and was finding my feet in terms of the workload and the working environment however after a while I settled in and formed good work relationships with my peers as well as being able to lead a team of interns towards the end of the 6 month period

I absolutely loved my experience not only when it comes to destination but also the friendships you make along the way. I will admit that my internship was tough especially due to the fact that it was a tradition Asian work space but because I had a support group to hang out with and try new things with every week, my time in Tokyo felt so short and full. I definitely recommend Beyond Academy to any students or any free spirits who want to get out of their comfort zone. I will forever cherish the memories I have made with such amazing people.

I absolutely loved my experience with Beyond Academy. I always felt 100% supported and safe in a country I’ve never been too. My internship experience was so valuable to my career development and I was able to meet so many amazing people I will know my entire life. This experience is so beneficial in so many ways and I would do it all over again if I could! Amsterdam was also one of the most perfect locations any student could choose. It is such a big city that has everything one would need. I would do anything to go back!

If you’re scared of traveling alone or just wanting to get some working experience under your belt I’d recommend this program to you. I personally came not expecting much but I left with not only a new perspective in life but new lifelong friends and some good experience to add to the resume. If you’re second guessing it, just go for it, the coordinators here are super supportive, the other interns are super friendly, plus you get to explore a whole new country with a group instead of doing it alone

I had an excellent time on this program, I learn loads and found the Beyond Academy company brilliant at organizing events and give tips for traveling around Tokyo! They were excellent at advice on the Japanese lifestyle and any info you were interested in!

The coordinators were great at helping me navigate anything I found difficult and helpful with optimizing my experience in Japan! Marc and Ceci were particularly good at travel and food tips! I met some amazing people along the way and overall would recommend!!

I had a splendid time doing beyond academy. The people you meet and all the fun things you get to do make the whole thing worth it. As for the job it depends on the company and the job you go for. Some people worked all the time, and others barely worked at all. Either way the people, the experiences and all the exploration outside of the job are elite and worth it. If you are thinking about doing it I’d say definitely give it a shot and go out and explore, work, and have fun. Shoutout Beyonf Academy
