This year Digitalize welcomed Amar, a young participant from the association OnePeople-ASBL, for a short observation internship aimed at discovering the professional world from the inside.

Promoteinclusion through real-life learning experiences
Bridge the gap between young talents and the corporate world
Approach
During their time with us, the interns are invited to observe the daily life of a company, discover various professions, and interact with team members. Our colleagues take time to share their experiences, explain their roles, and answer questions to make the experience enriching and supportive.

These internships are often the first step in a professional journey. For the participants, they offer clarity, motivation, and a sense of belonging. For Digitalize, they reaffirm our role as an inclusive and socially responsible company.
