How It Works

In the second or third year of study at ACN, students apply to us to undertake an internship. An external consultant places our students in the internship program. The work is voluntary although some companies may provide a stipend. The internship duration is tailor-made for our students. For example it could be one month full-time or one day a week part-time for six months.

  "I enjoyed doing my internship at Smarter Life and Leisure during my winter holidays. I've learned a lot, from doing general accounting (accounts receivable and payable, reconciliation) to marketing (web design) and met a lot of interesting people that were doing an internship like me. It also helped me with my decision on my future career to see what I really enjoy doing. I was offered a place on the completion of my degree."
