About This Project

In January 2018, a group of 17 students from Czchów (Poland) came to Seville for an internship as Administratives. They learned more about how to carry out office and managerial work, both from a theoretical and a practical point of view. They could develop and improve their knowledge and skills by carrying out several tasks, such as:

Searching new interesting information about travel agencies and tours guided in Andalusia and abroad;
Helping in the booking process and others relevant documents related to the services rendered;
Controlling payments, managing, ordering and archiving invoices according to the month and support sale processes;
Developing administrative tasks related to customer service and performing general clerical duties (photocopying, faxing, mailing, filling, scanning, etc.), performing basic tasks related to the service and the maintenance of printers and other kinds of machinery and saving/archiving documentation;
Maintaining and updating records management database systems;
Attending project meetings when appropriate, assisting with the coordination of events during projects’ delivery, ensuring that project files are up to date, assisting the Company Manager with the maintenance of the database (putting in data, making queries and running reports), maintaining and updating the internal library and index including administration of photographic and digital images, arranging and overseeing the recording of projects for the database and archive, preparing and delivering presentations, helping to prepare marketing materials and managing the company social media.

Moreover, they learned some Andalusian cultural, historical and gastronomic features during a Spanish course, a Seville tour (with a specific visit to the bullring La Real Maestranza),a Flamenco Masterclass and a Tapas Night. Apart from that, they also visited the beautiful cities of Malaga and Cadiz.

We hope that our trainees improved their professional and personal skills and competencies, both about their field of study and their personal training experience in a foreign country. We wish them all the best for their future like and work and we were very pleased with their stay.

Joanna Bieniek:

‘Thank to my school, I had opportunity to go to Spain. The internship that I have been doing was fantastic. My tutor Marta Conde is a very nice and smiling person with an amazing approach to everything. Despite that we did not always understand and my English is not perfect, she was always patient. Our accommodation was great and Inma’s dishes were delicious. We were on two splendidly trips in Kadyks and Malaga. Our coordinator Agata was helpful, friendly and the best coordinator ever. I spend here 3 great weeks.’

Jan Siepierowski:

‘Thanks to the internships organized by Euromaind, me and the class had the opportunity to go abroad to learn a profession. Seville itself is impressing; it has a lot of monuments of tradition, etc. What I saw was a great experience. The practices themselves were pleasant and, above all, a great opportunity to improve English and learn Spanish. As for learning Spanish, our Mari lessons were really encouraging to continue learning Spanish. Practices and the whole stay in Seville will be remembered for a nice and long time, we had the opportunity to get to know not only our own profession, but also how life and work in Seville look like.’
