With PILOT (the Personal Learning Objective Toolkit) you direct your professional, personal, and academic development while interning abroad.
PILOT helps you achieve your objectives by staying conscious of the many ways living, interning, and studying in a different culture gives your opportunities to grow.
Crafting a Personal Learning Statement not only gives you a sense of accomplishment, it is a valuable tool for articulating the value of your experience in interviews, grad school applications, and more.
Listen to Jessie talk about how PILOT helped her identify the skills she developed while interning in Paris.
