an internship instructor ensures you meet the programs academic

Your internship is considered an academic program: You earn academic

Through my IDP internship experience at the San Francisco
Center for Economic Development, I learned best practices to he
international businesses succeed in the Bay Area. This has been
very helpful in my current job at Opinno, an open innovation
network of entrepreneurs, investors and ideas.
I love the fact the I can have a positive impact on IDP students,
helping them define their professional paths. It is very important
that the interns feel part of the team during the time they are w
us, and they always play a main role at Opinno so that they canmake the most out of the internship.
