Virtual Internships

Forage is a free online platform designed to assist students in exploring careers, participating in job and internship simulations, and gaining firsthand experience with leading employers. Through Forage, students can acquire practical skills, gain insights into various professions and industries, and establish connections with employers.

Forage collaborates with employers to provide job simulations that replicate the day-to-day tasks of a typical internship, equipping students with the knowledge and skillsets needed for success in the workforce. During these virtual simulations, students utilize materials and complete assignments provided by their chosen employer, which are designed to mimic the tasks typically assigned to interns or recent graduates. Regardless of their university degree, prior experience, location, or year group, any student can experience working at some of the world’s top firms through Forage. Programs offer self-paced learning, enabling students to finish them in approximately 5 to 6 hours.
