Practical Internship, Guest Speaker & Field Trip Programme

Practical Internship Programme Since 1970, the Sara Beattie College has been training the best office professionals. One of the reasons for our success is the compulsory internship that each student must undertake prior to the completion of the Diploma in Professional Office Administration. The Internship Programme aims to provide Trainee Office Professionals with the opportunity to gain hands-on work experience and apply the skills that they are developing during their studies. For the partner-company, the programme represents an opportunity to benefit from additional secretarial/administrative support at no cost. All that is required of the company is a little of time to show the Trainee her duties, and to introduce her to the office procedures.

The College successfully operates a programme where Guest Speakers visit the College to introduce the girls to topics of interest and relevance that will assist them in both their professional and personal development. For the guest speaker, the programme represents an opportunity to interact with the office professionals of the future and share their valuable knowledge and experience. All talks are conducted in English. Talks have been delivered in the past by private companies and charities. Both the students and the guest speakers find these sessions enjoyable and rewarding.

It prepares them for the transition into the workplace and provides valuable exposure to other working professionals. Small groups of around 10 students accompanied by Management and Teaching staff visit an organisation for around one-hour. Visits usually entail a tour around the office premises, viewing of the core business activities and an introduction to some of the major clients of the business by a knowledge member of staff. The students are also encouraged to ask questions, thus improving their communication skills and increasing their knowledge of the real-world business environments.
