Several companies and host structures can offer you to work remotely during the lockdown. Indeed, the IT, commercial, Marketing fields as well as many others are more flexible and offer you the opportunity to reach your professional and educational goals via communication tools. You will only be required to possess your own computer, have constant access to a broadband connection and have a good knowledge of basic computer tools and the internet (as well as having remote communication tools such as Skype).
You will of course be regularly in contact with your tutor who will accompany you throughout your internship. Moreover, you will also have the advantage and the chance to practice a foreign language in your professional relations with your host company, which is also one of the important educational objectives of an internship abroad.
