Developing Tomorrow's Global Leaders
How can you use AIESEC?
Companies use AIESEC as the premier source of young, international talent. Additionally, AIESEC provides the cultural and logistical services necessary to maintain a global workforce. AIESEC offers customized solutions such as sourcing global talent, facilitating entry and integration into diverse cultures, and sponsorship of the J-1 training visa.
College students use AIESEC to have a paid, international internship abroad. AIESEC's local chapters send hundreds of students and recent graduates abroad through programs that range in duration and diversity from summer internships in Peru to year-long positions in India . Unlike any other program out there, AIESEC has an on-the-ground network that will arrange your housing, secure the appropriate visa, greet you at the airport, and ensure that you see all their country has to offer.
Diplomats use AIESEC as one of the most powerful tools for social change the world has ever seen. For more than 60 years, AIESEC has pushed beyond the boundaries of borders and created a global community comprised of individuals operating out of more than 1700 universities around the world. In 2003, AIESEC received a grant from the U.S. Dept. of State to facilitate cultural exchange between the U.S. and Middle Eastern countries.
AIESEC members use the organization as a vehicle for promoting cultural understanding and building their own leadership skills. AIESEC's mission statement is to contribute to the development of our countries and their people with an overriding commitment to international understanding and cooperation.
In an era of globalization AIESEC's programmes have helped young people around the world to develop a broader understanding of cultural, socio-economic and business management issues.
