Are you an ICT student in semester 5 or doing your graduation internship in semester 8? Then you know that internships are a great opportunity to grow, but also that they can bring challenges. Whether it's collaborating with colleagues, carrying out your assignment, setting up a portfolio, or preparing for a presentation/assessment, sometimes you just need that little bit of extra support. That's why we offer Internship Support: dynamic and flexible peer coaching sessions specifically for ICT students.
What do we offer?
Our weekly peer coaching sessions are there for you. In an open and safe environment, you can talk freely about what's going on, without the presence of teachers or internship supervisors. Here you will meet fellow students who understand exactly what you are going through, and together we will think about the best approach. Our experienced coaches, who know the world of ICT internships inside out, are ready to support you with practical tips and insights.
Why Internship and Graduation Support?
During Internship Support, everything that concerns you is discussed immediately. There is no fixed schedule or blueprint, but rather space to address what is important to you. This is your opportunity to gain insight into your own approach, learn from others, and find immediate solutions to the challenges you encounter.

Sometimes, it's reassuring to realize that you're not the only one who finds these situations challenging. That's why we organize weekly meetings where you can engage with Student+, an experienced study and job coach, and fellow students to discuss the issues that concern you. Together, we seek practical tips and strategies that can help you gain more control over your studies. The coaching sessions are interspersed with sessions that focus on topics such as procrastination, stress, feedback, and documentation.
