10. Case Study: Valentine Weaver “The UoD Career Service Team was very supportive throughout the programme and was always ready to help me and other course participants to deal with any kind of challenges and problems we faced with, let it be related to the accommodation, travelling or the internship placement.”

11. Case Study: Jess Vero “ The programme allowed me to gain valuable international work experience and I am happy to say that I am now working for the firm back in their headquarters in London. The experience has unquestionably enhanced my CV, and I am certain it will remain a talking point for years to come.

12. Case Study: Rui Monterio “As a result of this program, I have come to realize that, contrary to what I previously thought, I can thrive on group work, provided I stick to my strengths”

13. Case Study: Millie Chander “ The programme was an exceptional opportunity for me to develop both personally and professionally whilst enhancing my understanding of the specific local issues facing different communities. I also made some great friendships with others participating on the programme whom I lived with which made the whole experience more worthwhile as I was able to share with others.”

14. Case Study: Lachlan Malone “I was required to manage individuals of an entirely different background, culture and work ethic which required an entirely different approach to what I am used to. I feel that my abilities developed considerably and these can be transferrable to experiences in future when I pursue further work abroad and also within the increasingly multi-cultural society in UK.”
