The
AIESEC platform consists of a number of different opportunities through which an
individual creates their own AIESEC experience. This same platform also serves to connect our
partner organizations to the talented young people within AIESEC. The main opportunities of the
platform are
working
abroad,
learning
networks,
leadership
experience,
conferences,
and supported
self-discovery.
Together with the principles of the
AIESEC Approach, this platform is how we give young people the desire and capacity
to have a positive impact on society – that is the
AIESEC Difference.

Working
Abroad – the opportunity to work abroad is the defining element of the platform and is the most
intense experience we offer. We enable about 3,500 members to work abroad each year in fields of
management, technical, education, and development.
Leadership
Experience – through the management of over 700 offices at the local, national, and
international level, we provide about 5000 leadership opportunities to our members each year. This
provides our members with valuable and practical experience in both hard and soft skills in
management and leadership.
Conferences
– we organize approximately 350 conferences each year to train and develop our members. These
conferences provide the opportunity to practice leadership, gain important trainings, and develop a
network.

Learning
Networks - through virtual and physical interaction, learning networks enable different
stakeholders to come together to develop their skills, knowledge, and networks on topics of
interest. Examples of learning network topics include Sustainability, HIV/AIDS, and
Entrepeneurship.
The majority of our partner organizations engage with AIESEC through one of these platforms
in order to increase their profile, attract top talent to their organization, or to support our
efforts in enabling young people to develop and discover their potential.
