Gran Canaria is one of the few places around the world, together with Hawaii, New Zealand and Chile, considered by UNESCO to be a ‘window to the sky’ due to the quality and clarity of the atmosphere that enables people to star-gaze, a pleasure which is in danger of disappearing around the planet.

Importance of doing Internship in hotels in Gran Canaria:

Internships are important to the hotels industry as they offer a hands-on learning curve which, in turn, produces more effective employees.  Interns also get to know an invaluable insight into what day-to-day working life involves and provide a taster of different areas within the industry.

Animation:

Internships are excellent ways to see what the industry is really like. Students  can read about becoming an animator all you want–it won’t prepare you for the real-life demands of the job. Internships are great for experience, but students also have  an excellent test to see if the chosen field is right for you.

Bar and restaurants:

A restaurant & bar internship would be the best way to start your career in the hospitality field. Kitchen internships are always a great way to learn how to work as a team and to organize yourself.

Requirements:

Participation in the internship program is open to students from all over the world. Placements are made based on the compatibility of the student’s interests and academic background .

Benefits for students:

Internships abroad encourage cross-cultural skills and sensitivity.

You’ll be working with local employees  — quite possibly employees who don’t speak much English. This is a unique opportunity to learn many things about communication, about how other cultures handle different situations, and about differing work styles and ethics. These are things you won’t experience as profoundly from interning in your home country.

In the modern working world, with ever-increasing opportunities worldwide and a growing sense of a “borderless” universal society, most industries highlight cross-cultural skills and sensitivity as a key requirement for prospective employees.

Build an international network:

While you’ll likely participate in networking events during your international internship, you’ll also create an intangible network of contacts with whom you can stay in touch long after you’ve returned home.

Gain valuable work experience:

The hands-on work experience interns receive is invaluable and cannot be obtained in a classroom setting, making this one of the most important benefits of internships. Interns have the opportunity to apply acquired knowledge to real work experiences, witnessing firsthand the day-to-day job duties they can expect to encounter in their chosen field. In addition to learning the specialized skills of a particular field, transferable skills such as communication, teamwork, and computer proficiency are also obtained in an internship, fully preparing interns to enter the workforce upon graduation.

Gain confidence:

Internships allow you to test out specific techniques learned in the classroom before entering the working world. It’s an opportunity to apply what you have learned in a safe environment where mistakes are expected – rather than learn the hard way in your first job out of college.

Earn money while practicing:

Many internships are paid which means you can gain valuable work experience and make money at the same time. A paid internship will provide money to fund your college tuition and expenses.
