Working abroad-Program Description PDF
This program is directed at young people between the age of 18-35 who would like to move and work in a foreign country, for the purpose of improving their language skills and learning more about the culture and customs of the host country. This program offers financial self-sufficiency during the stay, and participants benefit from constant use of the language with fellow workers and clients. Participants in this program will only depart for a placement when the position and start date has been confirmed, all conditions have been defined and accommodation has been arranged.

The participants should remember that this is a work program, and therefore assume responsibilities and must conduct themselves in a professional manner as they would while working in their own country. Participants should be serious, mature and responsible.

Depending on the position, the language level needed varies. In general, participants with a low level will not be able to choose jobs dealing with the general public.

Working hours are normally 40 hours per week with two days off. Generally, the company will facilitate the attendance to language courses, although they are not obliged to do so.

Some companies may offer accommodation, but this is mainly related to jobs in the hotel and restaurant sector.

Participants will be given the same conditions, rights and obligations as a native worker. The legislation of the host country must be respected at all times.

Although most jobs are linked to the hotel and catering business there are also opportunities in other sectors such as: administration, graphic design, nursing, etc.
