As part of the think professional! project, the Goethe-Institut Kamerun gives motivated pupils from Cameroon the opportunity to gain their first practical experience in the world of work. In cooperation with local companies and institutions, we are creating a platform that shows young people career prospects in their own country and helps them to discover their talents in a targeted manner. The Goethe-Institut provides information at schools, prepares the participants and supports everyone involved throughout the entire process.
Importance of internships
Internships offer a valuable opportunity to nurture young talent at an early stage and introduce them to the world of work in a practical way. They make a valuable contribution to young people's career orientation – even while they are still at school. Pupils gain initial insights into the world of work, discover their interests and make informed decisions about their further education and career path. think professional! is a targeted initiative: the project provides professional guidance and opens up perspectives on the Cameroonian labour market. Internships can set the course for the future – both for individuals and for the development of a country.
