This experience was life-changing due to everything I learned and accomplished, all the bucket-list items I checked off, and all the extraordinary people I met along the way.

I grew in many ways and developed new skills as an emerging mental health professional during my 3 months there. My experiences with Connect-123 and my internship are ones I will not soon forget!

I spent the summer as a Research and Sustainable Development Goals Facilitation. My work included policy analysis, fieldwork, and organizing and mapping data using programs such as Excel and GIS.

My internship gave me hands-on experience in a field I am interested in and was totally doable with my schoolwork. If you’re looking for an internship and don’t know where to start, definitely consider Connect-123! 

The Child Life Practicum gave me child life skills I’m confident I wouldn’t have been able to learn through just a typical Child Life Practicum. This program gave me a new perspective and so many new skills.

I worked with a young and vibrant media production company. The internship gave me the flexibility and creative freedom to take on a variety of projects over the span of three months. I left with an expansive portfolio, new friends, and a big dose of Cape Town culture.

Connect-123 was the only organisation that could find me an internship in the exact field I wanted. They are on your side, they defend your interests and goals that you want to achieve during your internship.

The internship experience was fantastic. Connect-123 made sure to connect me with an organization that would challenge me and improve my Spanish proficiency.

Because of them, I was able to find a place where I was able to work on necessary life skills like communication and planning and learn skills that will benefit me in my future career path as a psychologist.

Apart from the connections I made with Irish health professionals, Connect-123 also helped me to succeed in my position and develop new skills that would help me in the long run.
