We assist in placements for Erasmus and Alternanza Scuola Lavoro.

Programme Details

At ISE, we offer students a program that allows them to work while making the most of their experience in Ireland. Before students arrive in Ireland, a job placement will be arranged which suits the specific needs and goals of our students. We will consider the student's specialization, qualifications, work experience, level of English, age, and duration of their stay.

Once the student has registered, we can organize up to three interviews with our client companies, with the aim of securing a work placement. Students have the option to combine work experience with an ISE English course. Students can choose between general English, one-to-one classes, IELTS preparation or Business English. If students require a specialist program, we are more than happy to tailor a course to their needs.
