“Once a year, go someplace you’ve never been before.” – Dalai Lama
Discern Internships is a leading host and manages internships for persons who are interested in gaining a work experience while immersing in a culture other than their own. We believe that a successful internship program is one that teaches and provides plenty of hands on experience within the field the intern is hired to work in. Over the years Discern Group has built its own networks of host companies and has contacts with private companies, the public sector and NGOs.
