Not sure that's the right place to post this so feel free to move this post if it's not.

Have anyone ever heard of the GVI volunterring programs?
I just noticed they also do some kind of DM internships for 6 months.
It sounds pretty cool, cause on top of becoming a DM, you also get to do some marine biology research (and getting trained for it) and you're actually helping on something while doing this internship.

Now i was wondering:

  • If anyone tried it, what did you think about it? Was it a good experience? How was the actual DM training?
  • What are professionals thinking about it? Would you consider a DM that just got out of that program someone interesting? What would you think of it compared to other normal DM internships training wise? Or i guess would it be a plus if a candidate went through that program compared to another one with a traditional DM internship?
