Internships and volunteering are a natural extension of the educational journey at the secondary level. Students have the opportunity to explore professional fields, engage actively in their communities, and develop key life skills – from initiative and responsibility to communication and critical thinking. These programmes are run in partnership with relevant organisations, offering real-world contexts for learning and self-discovery. Through these experiences, IOANID students build an authentic profile that reflects not only their academic knowledge but also their character, values, and vision for the future.

We facilitate students participating in an internship in a domain of their choice in June after the exams have finished, usually for a week, but sometimes students have stayed the whole summer.  These are important for a student’s CV, but also to help them discover which domain they want to work in later in life.
