07.11.2017 It´s the final countdown for Royal chance


The third episode of the project Royal chance or Come and work in England is now over. Five of the young people from Zlín, Kroměříž and Holešov came back from London with the enthusiasm of the newly acquired knowledge and experience. They all worked in similar positions as their predecessors and most appreciated the opportunity to improve in English in a natural environment.

Some of the participants have already taken an active part in working life. One of the candidates has fulfilled her dream and works for the Czech Police. Another trainee went through retraining when he did a course on CNC machines, also under the project. Now he plans to move to Prague, where he would like to pursue a newly acquired profession. Also, worth mentioning is a trainee who set up a trade certificate and went to work as a plumber in Germany - he has worked in the same position in London.

The last group is already engaged in preparation, English courses, multicultural courses and general information meetings on living abroad. We now also have some new positions available so the participant will have a great opportunity to choose from more working places. They will be leaving for London in the second half of January.

12.04.2017 Second group of young people successfully completed their internship


Na začátku dubThe second group of interns came back from London at the beginning of April. They all have mastered a new working experience perfectly and brought back a lot of memories for adventures and new experiences.

There were 5 young people in the group, all from Kroměříž. In London they worked in a nursery, in a Coffee shop, in administration and in advertising. The internship was not only an eight-week work experience, but also a rich cultural program in London provided by our mentors. The interns have returned satisfied, some of them are thinking about going back to London, to work and to live.

They all very much appreciated the preparation before they went to London as well as the care they got for the whole internship and the fact they learned how to act in a foreign environment and communicate in English. Now they will hopefully benefit from the gained experience and they´ll find a long – term employment.

We are now intensively working with the third group, which will travel to London as early as mid-May 2017.
