50% of the third year students of ISSA School of Management Assistants will undertake an international stay of programs of study in the second semester of the academic year 2018-19. In total, they will be based at 8 universities in 5 different countries: The Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, France and Finland. This is an initiative that continues over the years, and with it the doubts that may arise before leaving. For this reason, seven fourth-year students shared their experience with them. During the session 'Sharing my international experience' they were given advice, answered questions and told about their experience in a foreign country. Below are the testimonies of some of them.

"Living the Finnish Education is something unique."

It has been a unique experience for me, I have met amazing people and I have been able to live in a beautiful country. I would repeat it and I hope to live there again in the future. In my opinion, Finland is the best option for Erasmus, where you not only have time to travel and have fun with your friends, but also enjoy studying, since living the Finnish Education is something unique. Besides, Helsinki is one of the few countries in Europe where the degree program of Multilingual Management Assistant exists.

It has changed the way I see the world, people and cultures. I have grown as a person and, above all, I have discovered what I really like and what makes me happy. language When I decided to go, I was studying German as a third language at degree program, and besides practicing it, I wanted to learn more about the German culture and people. For those who are considering going, I would say to take advantage of it and enjoy it to the fullest, making friends, traveling, having an open mind and learning from everything around you.

"I have known methodologies from teaching different from those in Spain."

Karlsruhe is a city with a lot of university life and has good transport connections so that you can easily move around different cities and countries. In addition, the Duale Hochschule Baden-Württemberg offers a dual training : training professional combining apprenticeship in a company and training academic at a university. Therefore, it gave me the opportunity to see different learning methodologies than those currently taught in Spain.

The experience was incredible. I had the opportunity to meet and live with people from all over the world. We made very good friends group and we took the opportunity to travel. It is a unique experience worth living.
