Young Citizens awarded Certificate of Excellence

Young Citizens has received a Certificate of Excellence from CAPA, and we’re delighted.

CAPA: The Global Education Network is very well known for organising amazing internship programmes in a variety of countries such as Sydney, Florence, Shanghai and of course London.

For forty-five years CAPA has worked with institutions of higher education to build programs that meet their goals for learning abroad. They operate education centres in Global Cities and have developed distinct academic offerings, support frameworks, and oversight structures for our students and visiting faculty. Young Citizens is very fortunate to work closely with CAPA and offer interns an unforgettable experience of learning within lots of our departments within our charity such as marketing, finance and programmes and learning.

CAPA also like to recognize organisations that offer internships to their students and in December 2017 hosted a CAPA Commencement Festival where students could nominate their organisation for recognition. Students fill in a form discussing the range of responsibilities they are assigned, give any examples of outstanding mentoring and explain a one ‘stand out moment’ or highlight during the internship.

Our marketing team attended the Commencement Festival and we were awarded a Certificate of Excellence. We love being a part of CAPA’s network of organisations that take on interns regularly and look forward to working with the interns that have just arrived.
