"After the first national conference my heart was sold for all the endless opportunities and experiences"
"Aiesec is not my work but my habit ;)"
"Jyväskylä is an exceptional LC where different types of ‘crazy and special’, but at the same time like-minded people meet generation after generation, work together to provide unforgettable times and internationalisation opportunities for students from all disciplines, and thus create lifelong friendships with people from all over the world."
"Sometimes there are questions on my mind, such as 'what if I never knew about AIESEC' and 'what if I never joined'. Who would I be now? Every time I ask myself these questions, I realize how important AIESEC is becoming to me."
"Working in AIESEC Jyväskylä brings me a feeling of being part of something important. I feel like I'm doing something meaningful and that my work is appreciated."
"I think that during my 2+ years here I have learned so much more than during 5 years of my studies. It´s the practicality that teaches the best!"
"Being a part of an AIESEC team has already taught me plenty about working in a project and how it all functions (e.g. finding funding and partners, planning the project and its content etc.). In AIESEC you can put all your skills into practical use."
"Nowhere else could I find such a practical chance for skill acquisition. After all, I truly think I can fly with my beloved Aiesecers’ encouragements."
