Journey Overview
Are you a student studying languages at university?
Are you expected to do a placement abroad to improve your language while being fully immersed in the culture?
Would you like to do this whilst having an opportunity to share your faith?
This could be a brilliant opportunity for you!
Join OM for a 3-month placement in one or more countries. In the Schengen Area you can only serve for 3 months, then either return to the UK or another country outside the Schengen Area. You could then return to a Schengen country for 3 more months. The Language Placement Abroad exists both to reach the least-reached and to improve your language skills while being fully immersed in the culture.
If your language is not here please contact us and we will see what we can do!
