I personally know of people who have done internships in some of the locations as listed below:

1. CBS (Copenhagen School of Business, Denmark)
2. Italy
3. France
4. Harvard Business School (Boston, MA, USA)

If I had the chance, I would like to do a training from USA - A school like Wharton School of Business or Harvard Business School or even any SUNY (State University of New York) Business School. It would not only look good on my resume, but also help me make good networks. I am giving this a thought.
