Internship Program
We at JEF believe in young and fresh graduates in spite of the continuous decline and weakness in the outcomes of Jordanian education, but we believe in our social role towards youth by training them and teaching them the basics of work and what qualifies them to enter the labor market.
The internship program includes:
– Involving them within the projects of JEF, such as (JEF Indicators, DBR, UP and Running Program, JEF Podcast, etc).
– Train them, and the training includes the following: (Economics 101, How to write proposals, white papers, and emails, Software workshops (MS Project advanced) + Power PI, introduction to Data Science, Data Analysis and visualization, How to define problems, and investment management).
