Companies around the world and the US are offering opportunities to work remotely for their employees. Their biggest hesitation? A loss in productivity due to distraction or demotivation.
You can improve your future career prospects—and set yourself up to be a productive remote employee—through practice. Our programs will help you gain the skill set and discipline you can show future employers to land a job with a high degree of autonomy and flexibility.
"We’ll never probably be the same. People who were reticent to work remotely will find that they really thrive that way. Managers who didn’t think they could manage teams that were remote will have a different perspective. I do think we won’t go back."

An online internship is just like an in-office internship, with the obvious exception that you will not be commuting into the office each day. Projects are specifically scoped to be the same in complexity, length, content and duration as an in-office internship, with the added benefit of a comprehensive support structure in the shape of daily check ins from your dedicated Teaching Team mentor, and twice-weekly check ins from your company manager.
For three days every week, you will work on your internship project, in your internship team as well as individually. You will have daily check-ins on your progress on your internship project from your Teaching Team dedicated mentor, who will also be on hand to answer any questions you might have. On two days a week, you will have class in the virtual classroom with your Head Teachers, your Teaching Assistants and all your course classmates.
Twice a week, your manager at your internship company will check in with your team - together with your Teaching Team mentor - to answer questions you might have about your internship project, as well as to check on the direction that your project is taking, and brainstorm with your team any challenges you might be having.
