For Universities & International Offices

Your students want to go abroad. We make sure they actually do.

The Bologna Process set a target of 20% graduate mobility by 2020. The actual rate today is 9.4%. We help universities close that gap with verified placements, full compliance support, and end-to-end student care.

Why partner with us

Everything your international office needs, in one place

International offices are under-resourced and over-stretched. We handle the operational complexity so your team can focus on academic quality and student relationships.

Verified placements

Every placement partner is vetted for quality, welfare standards, and legal compliance. We do not send students to unverified organisations.

Full documentation

Tripartite agreements, learning agreements, ECTS documentation, evaluation forms - all prepared, coordinated, and returned to your office.

Student welfare

24/7 emergency support, wellbeing check-ins during placement, and a dedicated support contact for every student throughout their journey.

Global reach

25+ destinations across 5 continents. Europe, Southeast Asia, Southern Africa, and more. One partner covers the full breadth your students are asking for.

Programme alignment

Erasmus+ (EU), Turing Scheme (UK), SEMP (Switzerland), IISMA (Indonesia), and more. We understand the grant mechanisms and can support funding applications.

Student platform

What the data says

International internships transform graduate outcomes

Universities are under pressure to demonstrate the employability impact of their programmes. International internship experience is one of the strongest predictors of positive graduate outcomes in the research literature.

Common questions

What universities ask us

Yes. We prepare learning agreement templates aligned with Erasmus+ requirements, coordinate the signature process between student, host organisation, and university, and return completed documentation to your international office. We handle this for all Erasmus+-eligible destinations in our network.

All placement partners sign a formal agreement with us committing to meaningful work (not menial tasks), qualified supervision, safe work environments compliant with local law, bi-weekly student feedback, and a zero-tolerance policy for harassment. Every student has a 24/7 emergency contact with us throughout their placement.

We are not exclusive. Universities typically offer multiple routes to international placements - DIY, through IAESTE, AIESEC, or through us. What we offer is breadth (25+ destinations), depth of support (end-to-end welfare and documentation), and consistency (the same quality standards across every placement).

We prepare the learning agreement and evaluation documentation required for ECTS credit recognition. The decision on credit transfer remains with your institution and academic coordinator - we do not award credits ourselves. We make the documentation process as straightforward as possible and follow your institutional requirements.

Our Full Service placement fee starts from EUR 649-749 depending on the student's home market. This is separate from any Erasmus+ grants the student receives from their university. Erasmus+ grants go directly to students and are not paid to us. Students can and regularly do use both - the grant covers living costs, our fee covers the placement and support services.

Yes. For universities that wish to formalise the relationship, we offer an institutional partnership agreement that defines responsibilities, documentation workflows, and contact points on both sides. Many universities find this useful for internal approval processes. Contact Larysa to receive a draft.
