Internship Programmes

SEN Support believes that people with disabilities / SEN should enjoy equal employment rights as others in society. We have been working with different corporates and organisations to coordinate various internship programmes for our students in the past years. We have received highly positive feedback from the employers on our students’ abilities and work performances.

Through coordinating the Internship Programmes, we hope to promote inclusion at the workplace and to enable our students to unleash their potential in a barrier-free environment. To facilitate smooth employment, SEN Support will liaise with the employers on recruitment arrangement and communicate with them on necessary work accommodations.
