About us
PractiGo is a dynamic and devoted company with the aim to offer you the perfect experience abroad. Our journey started in 2001 when we provided our first inexpensive internships abroad. Ten years later we had organised almost 10.000 internships!
Today we are able to offer several different programmes, all based on the same idea: Gaining new experience and improving language skills, while learning for life. At PractiGo we believe in the concept 'learning by doing' or, in other words, learning through first-hand experience. This concept has inspired us in the development of all of our programmes. Our hope is that every participant, after finishing his or her programme, will be able to say that they have learned something new that will help them through future challenges and realise their aims.
With many years of experience behind us, we can proudly offer personal and professional advice to all our customers. All of the consultants in our international team have spent long periods abroad and learnt a new language, giving them invaluable first-hand experience.
Let PractiGo organise everything for you
Going abroad with PractiGo means so much more than only letting us customize a programme for you. It also means that we will assist you during the whole duration of the programme. And why not let PractiGo organise your complete stay including flights, accommodation, airport pick-up and our tailor-made insurance packages?
Your own personal adviser and expert
When you contact PractiGo you will immediately be assigned a personal adviser who’s an expert in the field and will help you out from the start and throughout the whole programme. As we have an extensive network of partner schools and companies all over the world we are in the perfect position to offer what you need!
Certified high quality programmes
PractiGo offers a certified high quality at affordable prices. We offer you detailed advice with the registration, visa, financial help, as well as on-site support through our partner organisations during your whole stay abroad. All participants in our internship programme may receive a certificate upon completion.

Gema Torres
During my school years in Spain I found that I very much like languages. Therefore I enrolled at the University of Madrid for German philology. In the summer I travelled then regularly to Germany to improve my language skills. After graduation I lived for a few years in both Bonn and Berlin. The combination of language and experience abroad opened the door for me to be able to work at PractiGo in Spain.
Jimena Caelles
I come from Argentina and have been at PractiGo from the beginning. After my degree in Economics in Cordoba (Argentina), I lived in Madrid for a while. I have now been living in Germany since 2001. As a native Spanish speaker, I can give you valuable tips for our programmes in Argentina and Spain. I am also responsible for the financing at PractiGo.
Oliver Schneider
During my studies, I spent time in London, Madrid and Argentina. Hence my wish to make it possible for young people to have such an exciting experience abroad. Learning a language and gaining an insight into foreign companies were my key reasons to do an internship abroad! As Managing Director I am responsible for advertising, public relations and academic contacts.
