The internship also serves as a valuable international experience for a student seeking global hospitality career. Over 70% of BBI students carry out their internships abroad. Each year, they take this opportunity to enrich their professional and personal experience.

BBI helps each student to select the most appropriate internship. All internships are structured around a progress and support plan which is jointly established by BBI and the company, thus enabling the student’s work to be evaluated in an objective way.

In this way, students remain in constant contact with BBI and inform it throughout their “Trainee Manual”, on the results of their work plan and progression. At the end of the training period the students establish also a report to show how they have developed.

The internship agreement, signed by the student, the company and BBI is established in accordance with the European Training Student Charter (HORECA European Training Regulation) as drawn up by HOTREC. This body represents professionals from the different national federations.
