In order for this experience to be as successful as possible, we recommend a 1-week-Spanish course before
starting your internship.
Learning Spanish will of course be another
advantage, which you can only fully acquire by living and working abroad.
Costa Rica has been a very important exporter for High-Tech and services
in the region; the high educational level, as well as the renowned universities
in this country have made it possible for inhabitants to become respected
professionals. These have also been reasons for many international and
US-American companies to manage their operations for Latin America from Costa
Rica. The “ticos´” high-leveled training, as well as their agility for other
languages makes it easy to assure a smooth working process.
Not to be sneezed at is Costa Rica´s rich biodiversity; whether in the
seas, the rain or cloud forest, near volcanoes or at the coasts: there are new
species waiting to be discovered and protected everywhere.
The fact that approximately 25% of the country´s territory is protected by National
Parks and Nature Reserves allows an effortless collaboration between locals and
interns and both parties can profit from it
