“[The program] totally blew away our expectations! Our students had a great experience and especially enjoyed the intercultural training. This is an excellent way for students across disciplines to gain experience in the context of the real world.”

FOR UNIVERSITIES

Boost student outcomes with a scalable, integrated, high-impact platform.

Fewer than half of college students—and less than 30% of first-generation students—participate in high-impact practices like internships or study abroad. Partnering with Podium is the fastest, easiest, and most scalable way for universities to provide students with real-world global experience and prepare them for high-demand jobs.
The Accelerator prepares students for global careers with:
  • Global LiveLabs featuring students from across the U.S. and the world
  • Live work simulations that prepare them for complex professional situations
  • Practical strategies and scenarios to more effectively learn intercultural communication, including the U.N.'s Story Circles
  • Opportunity to earn an Intercultural Specialist Badge upon completion
