An internship, especially in applied business disciplines, is an important experiential learning bridge from the academy to further training and/or a career threshold. The Covid-19 outbreak frustrated student placement opportunities in settings with a high exposure risk. The pandemic also disrupted degree progress and graduation targets for many. A case example of an alternative to an on-site internship is described that is a response to Covid-19 limitations. This alternative is defined as the “As-If” internship because it captures several learning outcomes of a facility placement. On-site internship success factors and benefits are discussed as a benchmark for demonstrating how the “As-If” experience fulfills on-site learning objectives. The alternative is further discussed as an approach for other extenuating circumstances.

Literature on traineeships recognizes beneficial effects on its main agents: students, employers, and higher education institutions. Furthermore, some authors have identified added effects when applying new technologies to the business internship experience, specially referred to improved computer skills and learning outcomes. The Faculty of Business Administration and Management of the Universitat Politècnica de València has had a remarkable increase of internships over the past years. As computer skills are being more demanded by employers in a globalized and technological world, it is expected that virtual placements and ICTs in the internship practice will be a trend in universities in the up-coming years. The management of internships of the two new Double Degrees in the Faculty of Business: Business Administration and Management + Computer Science Engineering, and Business Administration and Management + Telecommunications Engineering, could provide the perfect scenario to put into practice and to explore the possibilities of new technologies applied to internships. The recent change in the Spanish law and in the regulations of universities, such as the Universitat Politècnica de València, allows business internships to take place abroad. This could also provide an opportunity for innovation and growth, if combining internationalization with virtualization of internships.

As business relationships with China increase, management of multinational enterprises and joint ventures in the U.S. and in China realizes that success depends on attention to cultural differences. This article was written by a Chi nese professor of business communication who benefited from a business internship in San Francisco and an American professor of finance who wit nessed cultural differences in business during a recent exchange visit in Shanghai. The article highlights several cultural differences that promote understanding and reduce the difficulties of dealing with these disparate cul tures. The Chinese point of view of these cultural differences makes this article uniquely valuable.
