We have three main package options in three key areas

Classic Connection information (Internships)

We are able to guarantee an internship placement, by working with many companies who take students through ‘Internship In Brighton’. Once you select an internship placement that’s suitable, we will do everything else. You can relax knowing that we are taking care of the internship and, if booked, accommodation, school and the mentoring service.

Eligibility criteria

To be eligible for an internship placement, potential interns should fulfil the following criteria:

  • Hold an EU nationality or passport (that is not issued from the UK)
  • Be aged 17-40
  • Have a reasonably good knowledge of English
  • Be available for a minimum 3 weeks internship as an individual
  • Be available for at least 2 weeks if in a group

We need the following documents from you to organise a placement:

  • An internship programme application form, submitted online to us
  • An up to date CV written in good English
  • A letter, in English, for the proposed host company (a letter of motivation) written by each intern

An important & complementary part of our internship service is to ensure we have a process in place that both the intern and company are aware of that offers a support structure to ensure that any problems are dealt with efficiently if & when they occur.

This takes the form of a six stage process

1. On booking we encourage the intern to ask any questions about the internship to us and the company that will ensure they are fully informed as possible about the expectation of the company, the workplace and the work duties.

2. We set out clearly in a placement agreement to the company and the intern what their key responsibilities will include

3. We offer a mentoring service to the intern by e mail, phone, skype or face to face through the period of the internship offered advice and support. We also offer professional counselling sessions if we feel this would be more appropriate and if needed with qualified counsellors/practitioners.

4. We have a 24/7 phone support line (mobile call rate usually applies).

5. Upon completion of the internship we issue a certificate to the intern to ratify the successful completion of the internship period signed by us or representative of the company, based on a general level of satisfaction as related to the placement contract. A report may also be written by the company on the student interns key successes and any perceived weaknesses. This then gives the intern something positive to work towards.

6. We will ask the intern to complete an evaluation form in respect of the services provided by IIB and their time with the company to help us better plan service provision in the future.
We constantly monitor the companies for any changes of staff, company policy and direction and other areas that may alter or substantially affect impair or improve the interns experience.
We recommend the appointment of an internal company mentor wherever possible also.

Business seminars

You can take advantage of a customised Business Connections package designed around the specific needs and requirements of a specific college business course, whatever you are studying or interested in. Generally these are for group bookings but we also can fit individual students in as well on courses.

The Business Connections packages have some of the same core elements as our ‘Classic Connections’ packages but with the focus on topical business events and activities:
