Students in IHLs are increasingly recognising the value of early exposure to industry and internships to gain real-world working experience, as well as building their resumes. Students with disabilities tend to face more challenges in this regard than their typical peers, which could put them at a disadvantage when it comes to securing jobs post-graduation.

The SG Enable IHL Internship Programme provides internship opportunities for tertiary students with disabilities. Students will be matched to inclusive organisations in various sectors based on their course of study and preference. Students will learn in a real work environment, build up professional networks, and gain practical job-related knowledge and skills. An internship experience will be a valuable addition to the resume and is instrumental in future career searches.
