The most defining moments of my Paragon One externship were those that involved talking to lead JA staff and learning about financial education in the K-5 space. I also enjoyed the projects and the timelines involved in completing them. An amazing experience, honestly!

I had an amazing experience with Paragon One. The team were so helpful and always responded to emails and my queries on time. They were very supportive and feedbacks for the projects were also very good and critical which was helpful.

I participated on the Paragon One Consulting Externship in collaboration with PwC. I had an amazing time!

My externship with Paragon One was a great experience that I will never forget. I participated in a nonprofit consulting remote externship with PwC and I gained a lot of insights about the nonprofit sector. I appreciate the guidance from all the managers involved in the program. I would definitely do another externship with Paragon One, as I gained many relevant skills.

My schedule the semester that I did my externship was very hectic... sports and a class schedule that never matched up with the meetings. Michael Guerroro ( I honestly don't think I spelled that right) was the head of the program. Very kind and wanted everyone to be caught up, gave me a little extra time when I fell behind and was always willing to answer questions in the office hours he made.

manager gave a lot of internship advice, and the platform was also very helpful for learning and completing work, and I gained a lot

What made my experience great was definitely the knowledge I gained, the connections I made with local leaders as well as the opportunity to network internationally.

Thanks to all the mentoring and supporting, I had the opportunity to learn and develop skills that will help me in my future work life.

Having to connect with students from other nationalities was a good experience for me

Networking us with people from all over the world is a very good way of sharing knowledge on the subject matter. Through the meetings and the platform itself, learning process was very clear and easy to catch up with what everyone else is doing. However, I would suggest that freedbacks could be provided on time, and allow a thorough discussion with the student incase he/she may need to clarify anything. For example on my final presentation, the society I was dealing with, were not ready to be filmed so I couldn’t get relevant pictures. If the platform could allow for prior clarification before providing marks, things would work more better.

I have had series of online training but this has been my best so far. From the onboarding sessions to the last deliverables which was my project. The training outline was great and the learning platform was embedded with lots of resources to learn about water scarcity and I can play a role in mitigating and curbing it. The program manager Christie and the TAs and played a fantastic role when it comes to mentoring and giving feedback on how we can understand the content and improve our learning experience. The company meetings also helped me to relate well with the program and I learnt about sustainability. This training has equipped me adequately to be able to work at sustainability sectors

The online modules were easy to follow and there was thorough information to complete the assignments. Julia, our project manager made sure that every zoom meeting was in interactive and that all were engaged. These 7 weeks helped me learn how to better manage my time with uni and work. I enjoyed working with 826 Valencia and PwC on this project!

Paragon One is an amazing company that provided remote externships my experience is through the National Geographic Society and The Nature Conservancy Freshwater& Community Conservation Remote Externship, it was one of the most programs that I experienced ever, the journey through 8 weeks I learn many skills like Research skills, communication skills, leadership skills, storytelling and story map skills and others and build strong networking withe very outstanding students from many different regions in the world, the program manager and his ATs are very collaborative and supporting they guide us till to finish the program with very outstanding level, paragon one externship is an exceptional opportunity I referred many of my friends to join these program and to experience it and also I my self want to keep it up with Paragon one programs and externships, especially with the conservation externship.
Thanks, Paragon one

it is a flexible program, it allowed me to keep engaged in my studies.

Remote externship with self paced tasks and loads of learning opportunities. I took the HP Tech Ventures externship and had the opportunity to present my work to and receive feedback from Mr. Angelo from HP Tech Ventures. Great start if you want to start learning about venture capital.

This was a very enriching experience. I developed my communication skills alongside other externs who shared their experiences and had an open mindset for dialogue. Interacting with passionate professionals in the field inspired me to continue on my path in conservation. Without a doubt, this is an experience that I would repeat.

Paragon created an all round program that was easy to navigate despite the international setting. I felt like one with my fellows from all over the world.

The Externship experience was well guided by its instructors and provided the enough resources to excel in the externship.

The overall experience is great. I was offered the Beats by Dre's Externship and the skills and experience I have gained throughout the externship was really helpful to my current job. The whole application process was relatively simple and the interviewers were super nice (I applied twice for 2 separate externships).

it's a great externship program that I've ever experienced. The teaching assistant and the program manager were so helpful for me to do well in this program. very supportive mentor for helping the student with the research. So thankful for me to have been given this opportunity.
