How long is a Virtual Internship?

4, 6, 8, or 12 weeks – it’s up to you. You can also commit anywhere between 10-30 hours per week to your internship. The beauty of virtual internships is that they are flexible to fit your studies and lifestyle.

What companies could I be working for?

Host companies range from big organisations to startups and SMEs. Over 70% of interns work directly with the founder or c-suite member of their host company!

Why is internship experience so important?

A virtual internship gives you the chance to gain the soft and hard skills you need to succeed in your future career. You’ll be able to work with CEOs, incredible leaders, and more throughout the US, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.

Will a virtual internship make me more employable?

1 in 4 interns are offered a position by their host company following completion of their virtual internship.

The National Association of Colleges and Employers (US) released their 2021 Job Outlook report noting, “Employers continue to indicate that internship experience is the deciding factor between two otherwise equally qualified candidates.”

Gain the skills employers want

Not only will you gain the experience you need, but you’ll also gain the soft skills employers actively want in new hires by working remotely including time management, prioritization, cultural awareness, and so much more.

It’s more than an internship

You’ll be supported throughout by your internship experience manager. You’ll develop core skills needed to advance in the future through our professional development hub of 12+ courses. You’ll have access to a career coach who will help you leverage your internship experience to land the job you want. And of course, you’ll gain the valuable experience you need.

It’s entirely accessible – no need to relocate, travel, or commute

Internships shouldn’t be available only to those that can afford to relocate to big cities or travel abroad. Virtual internships make real-world work experience with innovative, international companies accessible to all, regardless of your degree choice, location, or background.

The Steps to Apply For A Virtual Internship:
Step 1: Book your (min. 4 week language course and min 120 hour internship) programme with EC and then continue the application process online to specify your interests and future career goals

Step 2: Meeting VI’s enrolment team on a short video interview to learn more about you so that we can match you with the best host company

Step 3: Be matched with a host company perfectly suited to you in 6 weeks or less

Step 4: Begin your internship with a start date that suits you best

Step 5: Gain valuable, real-world professional experience on your internship, build your skills with our professional development hub, and gain clarity on your future career path with your personal career coach.

"My first experience with on-line learning"

Bernadett Toth, student from Norway

The teacher was really good, dedicated. I liked the lessons with balance between conversation and grammar. But sometimes the quality of sound was bad, it was difficult to understand the others.

"Wonderful surprise"

Francisca Regidor Pérez, student from Spain

First, I wouldn't travel to learn a language, but my friend had a familiar problem and then I traveled alone. Then, I thought not to lose my holidays and learn English. ONLY FOR 10 DAYS. The teachers are patient, and passionate about doing classes. I stayed for only 1 week!! If you live in St Julian the location of the school is perfect. Near to the sea, to do bath. I didn't like disco activities; I don't like to see drunks on the street. I don't like go to the street with 60 or 100 people all together. But all places in Malta have interesting locations, histories, and a good bus system.

"We would like to come back and continue the language course"

Alexander Golubev, student from Russia

I liked the classes and teachers. The school location was in Kappara. I liked to swim with friends (on he Comino trip especially), having lunch at McDonalds (not everyday sandwiches, fruit salad -ok), the BBQ party on the beach, and the Aquapark. I was hard to wake up early in the morning.

"Teaching was not intensive"

Anna Ploetz, student from Germany

The teaching was not as intensive as it could be. We spent a lot of time by bus and waiting for the bus, and had breaks. But our intention was to improve our English!

"It is new interesting experience for me"

Pinteleeva, student from Russia

Evaluation of the location of the school depends on where you live. If in a student residence, it is very convenient. If the apartment, then it's far.
Unfortunately, the quality of education depends heavily on the pedagogical skills and the ability of teachers to adapt their style of teaching to a specific group.
Pastime for many. Everyone can find something for themselves. In general, the entire staff is very friendly and helpful.
And unfortunately, one important point - in Malta they do not speak in English in daily life. Therefore, total immersion in English is not happening.
I lived in the hostel-family. I was very lucky, an excellent family! and convenience, and the relationships and help-all excellent!
