On some of our programmes we are able to accept recent university graduates who have graduated within the last five years.

There are no specific academic backgrounds required to apply for our programmes. Applicants must, however, be able to demonstrate their innate curiosity and outline what they expect to bring to both the delegation and the programme.

APPLICATION Procedure

The delegation size for each programme will vary, however most of our programmes are heavily oversubscribed. As such, we employ a two/three-step application procedure to aide us in the application process.

We recommend summarising your previous education, work and extra-curricular experiences that might be relevant.
