Join Intern Abroad HQ, the world’s most affordable international internship organization, and invest in your future with an Education and Community Development Internship in Argentina.
 
With over 5,000 education providers and home to the Universidad Nacional de Córdoba (one of the oldest universities in South America, founded in 1613), Cordoba, Argentina, has earned the nickname La Docta (“the learned”). The city offers interns a great opportunity to immerse themselves in the educational field, while contributing to lasting impact, helping students reach their full potential. Interns support local teachers in implementing a comprehensive curriculum across a wide range of subjects and assist them in developing educational programs that benefit the community. Interns can expect to gain a deeper understanding of different teaching practices, while developing their Spanish language skills.

This program ranges from 4-24 weeks and has start dates every third and fourth Monday of the month.

Your fully-hosted experience includes sourcing of your internship placement, personalization of your project plan, airport pick-up, orientation, accommodation, meals and 24/7 support. For a full list of our transparent fees, check out our website.
 
Suitable for students and recent graduates with at least one year of relevant college/university study in a related field, such as Education, Social Work, Technology, etc.

Suitable for students at a beginner - A1 and A2 - Spanish language level (recommended Spanish language education for 2 or more years). With the exception of fluent or native Spanish language speakers, all interns are required to attend 20 hours of mandatory Spanish language lessons for the first week of this internship, before commencing the internship placement. This is included in the program fee. Additional Spanish lessons are optional but recommended and are not included.
 
As the historical city of Cordoba progresses, interns have scope to support education and community development, which often provides additional resources where they’re most needed. Placements in this field can include schools, community centers, NGOS, or other types of educational institutions, all offering opportunities to gain practical experience related to the educational sector, and to positively impact other people’s lives. All internships in Argentina require a strict commitment and high level of responsibility - attributes that are certainly relevant for careers related to education.

To support interns with both cultural and language integration, this internship program includes 20 hours of mandatory Spanish language lessons, which must be undertaken during the first week of the chosen internship duration. If you are already an intermediate or native Spanish language speaker, you may be permitted to skip the language lessons and commence the internship placement directly. However, this will be confirmed on-site, upon review of your ability. All program coordinators speak English, in addition to all direct internship supervisors. However, a genuine effort to interact with the Spanish language is essential, in order to help surmount any other language barriers, with a positive mindset.

Practical activities typically include working closely with the local teachers, helping them prepare the lessons and educational materials, assisting them in developing educational programs and carrying out their curriculum, as well as helping children with their homework and providing students with support. However, individual internships experiences vary, as the specific placement that you’re assigned will depend on review of your resume, your current level of studies and experience, and language ability. Therefore, if you’re at a more introductory level, you should reasonably expect a more introductory internship. Placement preferences are considered but always subject to availability.

In all cases, interns are expected to be as proactive as possible, as a high level of initiative will greatly enhance your cultural immersion and program engagement. Interns will be encouraged to focus on their areas of strength, while also being flexible, to ensure that contributions can be made according to interest, as well as need.
Internships in Argentina also include Intercultural Competency Seminars. These are conducted in Spanish but English language support is available, to ensure understanding.
