Consulting Course & Internship Abroad

Management Consultants solve complex business problems.

Management Consulting is about helping organisations to improve their performance and grow, by solving problems and finding new and better ways of doing things. It's the perfect career for anyone with intellectual smarts and analytical ability, who craves variety and would love exposure to different industries.

Management Consultants try to understand their client’s challenges deeply. Then, armed with their data analysis techniques and thinking frameworks, and drawing up their company's experience in similar industries, they come up with new and innovative ways of solving the challenge. No two days are ever the same.

Accelerate your career
with an internship.

Consultants tackle—and solve—the most difficult problems that face governments and businesses, small and large. Consultants learn a variety of skill sets and are exposed to a number of different industries in a very steep learning curve. People moving out of Management Consulting are in great demand in industries such as Finance and Banking, and other corporate organisations. They are well-placed to become leaders in most organisational fields.

After your course, you can do an internship with one of our partner companies to hone your skillset, bolster your resume, and jumpstart your career.
