The education group has partnered with GatewayME and I Love Mondays to provide students with discounted access to TeenInterns.ae, an online internship platform  

Dubai, June 22, 2023: UAE-based GEMS Education has partnered with GatewayME, a Dubai-based consultancy company and Indian edtech firm, I Love Mondays, to offer its students discounted access to online internship platform, TeenInterns.ae.  

Internships from more than 50 industries such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), crypto, photography, gaming, law, medicine, forensic psychology, drama, finance and many more allow students to explore careers they are passionate about. Students can also apply for work internships in industries such as videography, social media, psychology, business management, graphic design, UI/UX and banking.  

With this partnership, students from any of the 43 GEMS schools in the UAE and Qatar will also be able to volunteer with NGOs around the world.   

“Our belief is that every teen should choose a career they love, and we know that through our platform, we can empower and equip GEMS students with the skills and career experiences they need to succeed in the real world,” says Mala Mary Martina, CEO of I Love Mondays.  

TeenInterns.ae offers senior students career guidance, allowing them to make informed career choices ahead of moving on to university and more than 100 live programmes in volunteering, work internships, plus other experiential employment projects and master classes.  

Matthew Tompkins, GEMS For Life Director of Student Employment at GEMS Education says, “I Love Mondays’ programmes are all live sessions with industry experts from around the world, which will allow our students the direct learning experience of a career they are interested in.”  

The UAE has taken major strides to arm its young generation with the skills required to bolster their careers from the beginning.   

Gateway ME is the official partner promoting I Love Mondays in the Middle East and secures collaborations with schools while ILM delivers the platform, content and programmes. 

“Through this partnership with GEMS Education, we are empowering young minds and preparing them for the future of work in line with the UAE’s National Strategy for Higher Education 2030,” says Akhil Koka, Director at GatewayME. “We are excited about the numerous possibilities that this partnership offers for students in UAE and the wider GCC region.”
