Interns benefit from experience in an international and fast-paced environment while contributing to IATA’s day-to-day mission by performing support/administrative tasks.

IATA Internships incorporate talented, innovative and motivated individuals, fresh from academic training, into the IATA working environment. Each intern has significant opportunities to demonstrate skills as well as to learn and develop in an international business environment.
