My Global Internship (“MGI”), and you, the applicant (“You” or “Participant”), hereby agree as follows:
References in this agreement to "My Global Internship" and "MGI" shall include My Global Internship and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and all of its and their officers, directors, employees, interns, affiliates or other organizations, institutions and groups linked to My Global Internship as it relates to the Internship.
You hereby apply for acceptance into a My Global Internship. The Internship enables the Participant to perform work for a host company or organization (“Host”) as an intern, pursuant to a separate arrangement between MGI and Host, and neither MGI, nor the Host (unless it chooses to do so at its option) will not pay that Participant for such work. The Participant further understands and acknowledges that this agreement is not binding on MGI until (i) Participant is accepted into an Internship (the “Internship”) and that upon acceptance (ii) the Participant agrees to MGI’s (a) Terms and Conditions, (b) the MGI Program Contract, and the (c) Participant Code of Conduct.
The cost for participation (“Program Details and Fees”) is as shown on www.myglobalinternship.com.
The initial deposit payment ("Enrolment Deposit") is due before MGI can begin to formally process the Participant’s enrolment. The Enrolment Deposit is for the sole purpose of reserving the Participant’s position in the program, and the Enrolment Deposit is non-refundable. There will be no exceptions to the refund policy. The Enrolment Deposit will be applied towards the balance. The terms of this Agreement are enacted upon submission of the Enrolment Deposit.
If accepted into the program, the Participant will be invited to pay a non refundable enrolment deposit of $400 towards the program to secure the internship.
Once enrolled, MGI will begin reaching out to its extensive network of host organizations to find a role that best matches Participant’s profile.
If the company wishes to accept Participant for the internship, Participant will receive an email asking to accept the internship. Balance of the Program Fee ($1480) is due within 7 days of being assigned a placement.
The Participant agrees to pay the balance of the Program Tuition according to the payment terms at the time of enrolment. MGI reserves the right to collect any unpaid balances due to MGI and all other remedies available at law or in equity.
Late payments on non-deposit payments will be charged a $50.00 late payment fee and will accrue interest until paid in full at the lesser of (i) eighteen percent (18%) per annum or (ii) the maximum rate allowed by applicable law.
The Participant understands and agrees that when the Participant electronically execute this Agreement by clicking on the "Terms and Conditions Approved" box on the Program application, the Participant has made a commitment and agreed to pay the entirety of the Program Fee subject to the Cancelation/Withdrawal and Refund Policy guidelines provided.
MGI uses commercially reasonable efforts to locate internship placement.. The Participant must attend (virtually) all interviews arranged. The Participant is expected to accept a position upon receiving an offer from a Host (provided it matches one of the areas of interest indicated by the Participant), and the Participant’s failure to accept an offer would be a breach of this Agreement. If the first Host that has interviewed the Participant is unable to offer an internship, MGI will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain another opportunity for the Participant to interview with a different Host. All internship offers will be communicated to the Participant either by phone or email, and the Participant is required to accept or decline a position by phone or email, as well. If the Participant rejects a properly made offer, MGI is not responsible for finding another placement and the Participant is expected to pay the full balance due.
The Participant must provide two (2) weeks’ notice to both MGI and the Host if the Participant intends to terminate an internship ahead of the anticipated internship end date. If the Host chooses to terminate the Participant’s internship, the Participant’s Program will also be terminated, and the Participant will be entitled to no refund whatsoever.
The Participant, after enrolment, is a member of MGI’s Program, and the rights and obligations between the Participant and MGI are expressly limited to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Participant will not be an employee or independent contractor of MGI. The Host is providing the opportunity for the Participant to gain valuable experience as an intern working for the Host; the Host has no obligations to the Participant, and the Participant will not be an employee or independent contractor of the Host.
The Participant is expected to attend and participate in the Internship for the entire length of the internship. The Participant will intern for the Host based on a schedule requested by the Host. Any requests for time off must be submitted in writing and approved by the Host and MGI, and the Participant may be released from its commitment during the Internship only with MGI's prior written consent.
MGI reserves the right to make changes, cancellations or substitutions to the Internship for any reason, including, without limitation, emergency or changed conditions or based upon other circumstances which may affect the Internship. Any expenses incurred due to such changes, cancellations or substitutions are at the Participant’s expense. If the Participant chooses to withdraw from the Internship as a result of any such changes, there will be no refund of any portion of the Fee or of any other expenses. Additionally, if any change the Participant makes results in additional fees, the Participant will be responsible for paying such fees in full by the established payment due date.
The $400 deposit of the Program Tuition remains non-refundable at all times. If the Participant wishes to withdraw from the Internship, the following applies:
Participants choosing to leave the Internship early once it has commenced for personal, medical or other reasons are not entitled to any refund. Completion of academic credit will be determined on a case-by-case basis. Participants dismissed for disciplinary reasons shall receive no refund of any kind and forfeit any academic credit.
Should MGI cancel an internship prior to commencement for reasons within its control, participants will be notified and options include placement in another internship or a full refund, including deposit. This is the only unique situation where a non-refundable deposit can be returned.
Should MGI cancel an internship (including once the it has started) for reasons beyond its control including, but not limited to, Acts of God, government actions, pandemics, fire, flood, explosion, earthquake, or other natural forces, war, civil unrest, accident, terrorism, any strike or labor disturbance, or any other event similar to those enumerated above (a “Force Majeure Event”) participants will receive no refund.
If the Participant is unable to complete the Program after it has begun due to outside factors beyond the reasonable control of either MGI or Participant (including, without limitation, if the Host ceases to do business or terminates its participant in the Internship, there is no assurance any funds will be recovered, and MGI will have no liability for a refund.
If the Participant has a complaint about the Internship (before, during, or after the Internship) and believes a refund is due, the Participant must request, fill out, and submit a Grievance Form. This form must be completed in full detail and submitted directly to MGI. The Grievance Form will be reviewed and the specifics discussed with the appropriate parties. At this stage MGI will make a decision, in its sole discretion, whether a refund of any amount is warranted. MGI reserves the right to withhold any refunds at its sole discretion pending a thorough resolution process. All decisions made by MGI, in its sole discretion, are final.
MGI often documents its internships by video, photographs, testimonials from participants and other means (collectively, "Recorded Media"). MGI may use any means to record or otherwise memorialize the Participant’s participation in theInternship, and the Participant authorizes MGI to utilize any Recorded Media of the Participant in MGI's promotional material and websites, or otherwise as MGI may elect, at any time in the future, without compensation to the Participant or any further permission or consent from the Participant.
