Every year, the SABIS^® offices in Lebanon offer internship opportunities to university students who are looking for work experience to build their CVs. The successful internship program, which has been running for seven years, allows soon-to-be graduates the opportunity to refine their skills and gain the experience they need when applying for jobs in a competitive job market.

This summer, for a period of two months, a total of 27 interns gained valuable work experience at SABIS^® in a number of areas including software development, academic development, and creative design. Interns in the IT Software Development Department assisted the team in testing and enhancing the E-book mobile application and the Management Console Website. In the Academic Development Division, interns assisted the team in developing Interactive White Board (IWB) material, Integrated Learning System^® (ILS^®) lessons, and researching E-book projects. In the Creative Design Department, interns worked on designing social media posts, developing concepts for numerous websites, software development applications, and other tasks related to design and web development. Last but not least, a number of interns worked on the On-Demand Tutoring (ODT) project by preparing and recording academic tutorial videos that students can access to study at their own pace.
