Education Innovation Fellowship
Eskwelabs launched the Education Innovation Fellowship (EIF) in 2023 to scout for individuals who believed in our mission of equipping people to succeed in the future of work. We designed an internship for them, for multi-talent impact professionals.
2024 became our reflection year for the Fellowship, studying areas for improvement, exploring strengths that could be enhanced, all while partnering these retro notes with our 2025 plans.
This is an internship program that scouts individuals with potential talent who believe in our mission of equipping people for the future of work. We welcome all courses and backgrounds, and through this, you are taught different upskilling skills and knowledge, as well as gaining opportunities to experience and learn more with Eskwelabs' help and guidance. In that sense, this is a potential stepping stone and gateway to the next part of your journey, whether it’s within or outside of Eskwelabs.
