InteRDom Business Day Will Acquaint
Students with the Intricacies of their
Internships Santo Domingo, June 12, 2009
On Monday, June 15, as part of a
multi-day orientation session,
InteRDom will organize a Business
Day to acquaint students with the
intricacies of their internships.
During the event, representatives
from participating organizations and
businesses will present in-depth
descriptions of the programs and
projects in which the interns will
be working. Students will have the
opportunity to meet with their
respective employers, become
familiar with their institutions’
training programs, and ask questions
prior to beginning their
internships. The event will take
place at FUNGLODE Headquarters in
Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
InteRDom’s Business day plays a
pivotal role, not only in orienting
interns to their new work
environments and responsibilities,
but also in expanding students’
understanding of the objectives and
work procedures of a variety of
companies and organizations
representing diverse economic
sectors in the Dominican Republic.
InteRDom, an initiative of Global
Foundation for Democracy and
Development (GFDD)
and Fundación Global Democracia y
Desarrollo (FUNGLODE),
offers students the opportunity to
gain professional experience by
interning with Dominican
organizations and businesses related
to their field of study.
The Program fosters and promotes
the professional, academic,
scientific, technological and
cultural exchange of students and
professionals in public, private and
non-profit organizations of the
Dominican Republic. It significantly
contributes to the development of
the nation’s employment sector and
the advancement of academic
research, while providing spaces for
personal and professional growth,
internationalization and
multicultural understanding.
