Professional Internship Opportunities
In this era of dramatic change on a global scale, the ATA has always known that the most powerful tool for improving foreign relations between cultures is by sharing knowledge, resources, and interests. With the help of volunteers and donations, we’ve fostered lasting friendships (and trust) by connecting with communities and individuals in Russia. This has been the guiding principle for the ATA and one that has been a successful model for 30 years. The ATA thrives on enriching the lives of Americans and Russians so it’s no surprise that we keep offering creative opportunities like the “Professional Internship Program”.
