Beyonders Share Their Experience on Our Program

“What I loved about Beyond Academy and why I choose them is because they are more flexible and more individually tailored to what each person is looking for, rather than just a generalised experience. My group and the entire Beyond community has been really welcoming. I am so lucky to be able to have this experience with people that are similar, as in we are all looking to grow personally, grow professionally and also just enjoy every moment. Everyone here has left behind the familiar and has come to the unfamiliar which can be scary, but when you have a community as good as this, it’s not scary at all.”

Hannah from the United States

Arts, architecture, fashion and culture; whatever you’re looking for, New York has it. There’s nothing like the lights and excitement of a Broadway show; combine it with a trip out to a high-class restaurant for an unforgettable experience. Or take a deep dive into the beating cultural heart of the city as you experience the conclaves of Chinatown, Little Italy, or Soho. Whether it’s delicious food or fascinating history, there’s always something new to discover.

Alongside you as you get to know the city will be your Beyond Community; you couldn’t possibly have a better network of friends and supporters.

Or take a look at the second-largest public art collection in the US with a trip to the Brooklyn Museum.

Whether you want to explore the neighborhood’s variety of museums or simply experience its famed nightlife is up to you.

Up-and-comers from all over the globe come to play these cosy rooms, hoping for a shot at success; and you’ve got a front-row seat to see these prodigies in action. Enjoy a fantastic selection of music and cocktails as you embark upon a night of culture and sophistication.

Weeks 1 & 2

Welcome to the Big Apple: a city full of lights, glamor and excitement. We’ll be waiting for you as you step off the plane; allow us to take you straight to your awaiting accommodation. Feel free to spend the rest of your first day as you wish; sleep off the jet lag or head out into the city and begin exploring.

This is where you’ll become familiar with the shape of your program and what exactly you’ll be doing. In the evening, you’ll kick off your internship by meeting your Beyond Community. Enjoy a delicious New York dish as you get to know your new friends.

Your first day of work will see you meeting your colleagues for the first time. Get the lowdown on your workload, then get stuck in. Ask questions and draw on their professional insight as you work; they’re here to help you succeed, so take advantage of it.

You’ll soon find yourself stretched by your workload, especially if you haven’t worked in this sector before. So it’s a good idea to take an early skills workshop. Here, you’ll work under the guidance of coaches and speakers to boost your core skills. There’s no better way of getting fighting fit for the weeks ahead.

Soon enough, it’s time for the first of your cultural trips. Welcome to Brooklyn! The largest borough in the city, you’ll find plenty to see and do here; including fantastic green spaces and specialized museums. Cap off your day with a visit to Coney Island.

View over NYC

Weeks 3 & 4

It’s your third week in New York, and you’ve soon developed a mastery over your workload. From property valuations to market research, you’re working with increased independence; the experience you’re gaining here will be invaluable in the years to come. Head out to one of New York’s many cafes and chat with your manager about how you’re getting on so far.

After a hectic couple of weeks, you’re looking for the right way to unwind; fortunately, a community dinner invite has just landed in your lap. Meet up with your friends and chat about how your internships are progressing; feast on some delicious New York-style pizza or pastrami as you do it.

You’ve probably made a couple of contacts of your own by now; head to a top networking event to make a few more. Meet and greet with top property leaders across the city; impress and good things may come your way.

Next up, it’s your second trip. Take a journey down to the Lower East Side as you experience this unique part of New York. With a blended culture like no other, dive into the history of this fascinating neighborhood.

Weeks 5 & 6

Almost as soon as it began, your New York experience is drawing to an end. If you haven’t already, cast a critical eye over what you’ve achieved with your 1-to-1 coaching session. This is a great opportunity to look back over your completed internship; then consider what steps you’d like to take next.

For your last trip, you’ll immerse yourself in New York’s unmatched jazz scene. Follow in the path of legends as you enjoy an old favorite or two; sip on a delicious range of cocktails as you do it.

Finally, you’ve got one final event on the agenda; your farewell dinner. Meet up with your friends on what’s sure to be an emotional night. Pledge to stay in touch, then say goodbye. And in your remaining time in the city, pack as much into it as you can. Explore the New York Transit Museum in Brooklyn; or head to the Lincoln Center and take in some performing arts!
