Apply for the #BlueBookTraineeship and join us at the Publications Office of the European Union! Curious about what it's like? Meet Natalia, one of our trainees, who brings a rich background in social sustainability and a drive to make a difference. Natalia studied languages and worked for ten years in the public sector in Sweden, supporting people in vulnerable conditions. Motivated by this experience, she pursued a master's in sustainability. She then spent nearly five years working in education in Romania, aiming to create opportunities for children at risk of discrimination and exploitation. Why did Natalia choose a #traineeship with us? She was drawn to EUR-Lex, the website that publishes the Official Journal and provides access to European Union law. ‘This traineeship offered me a unique opportunity to see the inner workings of the EU and to contribute to its mission’, Natalia explains. During her traineeship, Natalia found a great blend of giving and receiving. ‘I’ve had the chance to contribute to the service offered by the Publications Office, for example by facilitating workshops for colleagues from across the Office, testing EUR-Lex functionality, and making suggestions on the website. I was offered learning opportunities, finding out firsthand how EU institutions work, seeing them from the inside, and networking with colleagues working in them, such as the European Parliament, Court of Justice, and European Investment Bank. I also learned specific skills I was interested in, like web formats and how EU law is made and disseminated.’ Natalia states this traineeship has confirmed her determination to work at an institutional level in Luxembourg: ‘This experience has cemented my decision to continue working for the EU institutions. I am pleased that the trust is mutual, and the future looks bright for the collaboration to continue.’ Want to gain hands-on experience like Natalia?

Political Reporting&Communication for the EC | former Blue Book trainee | Girls Future Ready Foundation
Last week was the last one that I spent at the European Commission Representation in Poland as a #BlueBook #trainee in the Information and Communication Sector. 🇪🇺 These 5 months were both challenging and extremely satisfying. They involved two study visits to Brussels and many outside events that I had a chance to participate in. 👥 During my traineeship, I had an opportunity to support both the Information and Communication Sector and the Political Sector as I was: -assisting in the coordination of communication projects (the main project I was involved in was focused on cooperation with rural libraries all over Poland); - giving presentations on traineeship opportunities within the EU institutions; - organizing (including logistics and substance) in-house meetings for various stakeholder groups; - working on publications; - participating in the organization of high-level visits, including Commissioners' visits (including input for briefings); - monitoring opinion polls; - managing ad hoc tasks related to #communication and political activities. These months wouldn't have been so special without support from the team. From day one I felt like a part of the team, everyone was doing their best to give me opportunities to grow and learn. I am and will always be beyond grateful for that. 🤗 Thank you for giving me this opportunity, I believe that I did my best to use it to the fullest. 👏 I know that it's only the beginning of my #European adventure! 😍 #EU #traineeship

Cyber Policy Officer (Blue Book) at Hybrid Threats & Cyber Division @EEAS🇪🇺| Fmr. Adviser at the Permanent Mission of Latvia to UN & Embassy of Latvia in the NL| MSc Cybersecurity Governance| BA Politics & IR
🔔 All students, graduates, young professionals! Highly recommend applying❗️🇪🇺 For my experience read below: In the words of Mārtiņš: “I want to emphasize that the Blue Book Traineeship, and the so-called EU Bubble in Brussels, is for people from all sorts of socio-economic and academic backgrounds—truly, for those coming from remote rural areas, like myself, to vibrant metropolitan regions of EU Member States. It is for those who have completed their studies in political science, law, multimedia communications, and graphic design, to graduates in food technology and cybersecurity studies… One piece of advice I would give to current students and my fellow young professionals who are either planning to apply for the Blue Book Traineeship or have thought of having a career in European Institutions or leading an international career path: do your best in all subjects, but most importantly, focus and specialize in subjects and professional fields you are passionate about. This is essential both for being able to enjoy and still love your job when it gets busy, and also to stand out among other applicants for the Blue Book Traineeship and in the job market generally. Regarding the Blue Book Traineeship itself, as someone who has been passionate about EU policy-making and (cyber) diplomacy, and a true believer in the European Project, and as someone who has previously had the opportunity to complete internships at Latvian diplomatic missions to the United Nations in Geneva and the Embassy of Latvia in the Netherlands, nothing competes with the early career and networking opportunities the Blue Book Traineeship can offer. Throughout this traineeship, I developed new skills, such as writing non-papers, notes, and speaking points, organizing roundtable discussions, and learning about inter-institutional relations of the EU institutions and internal administrative processes that are unique to EU policy-making practices. Lastly, one of the highlights of this traineeship, among others such as being at the epicenter of the development and implementation of EU cyber diplomacy policies and initiatives, and working on EU-NATO relations vis-à-vis emerging and disruptive technologies (EDTs), was the time when I received a briefing request to prepare speaking points on EDTs for President Ursula von der Leyen prior to her trip to the NATO 2024 Summit.” “To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield” /A.L.T./ ”.

Here are some important facts from the UDaily story about studying business in another country and doing internships at the University of Delaware: - The Alfred Lerner College of Business and Economics gives students many chances to learn, work and experience different cultures around the world. - Study abroad programs let students take classes for their business degree while living and learning in cities like London, Prague, Madrid, and Singapore for part of a year. Teachers lead classes provide 2-3 week long trips to learn about other countries. Students go to places like Germany, India, China and South Africa. They have classes and visit companies. This helps them learn about other places. - The Lerner World Scholar Program lets students work as interns with a worldwide company for 6 to 12 months in places like Hong Kong, Milan, Dublin and Auckland. - UD's Institute for Global Studies helps students figure out what they need to do to study in another country and find programs there that best fit what they like to learn and what they want to do. - Going to other countries to learn helps students become better at talking to people from different cultures. It also helps them get better at speaking other languages and see the world in a bigger way. Business owners like when students have these qualities. - Students talk about how learning in other countries in cities like Barcelona and doing work abroad helped improve their education, job skills, being able to do things without help, and knowing about other cultures. The story talks about the lots of programs for students around the world through the Lerner College that let business students get world experience and a better way of seeing things. #UDelBusinessAbroad #GlobalInternships #StudyAbroadExperience #UDelawareBusiness #InternationalEducationUD

Young people eager to work with EU institutions, bodies or agencies have numerous options to gain valuable experience. Traineeships offer young professionals practical work experience and skill acquisition before transitioning to regular employment, while volunteering allows for practical skill development and is ideal for those looking to make a positive impact. The European Commission offers the Blue Book programme, a 5-month paid traineeship open to all EU citizens with a limited number of places also allocated to non-EU nationals. Trainees gain hands-on experience in various areas of EU policy-making, human resources, translation, and other fields, contributing to projects that shape the future of Europe. Applications for traineeships starting in March 2025 are open until 31 August at 10:00 (CEST). Applicants must have a university degree and proficiency in 2 or 3 EU languages, depending on the type of traineeship. The application process involves completing an online form and providing supporting documents through the Commission’s official portal. Beyond the Commission, various EU institutions, bodies and agencies offer internships and volunteer positions, providing unique insights into EU operations and fostering professional growth. These positions are available in a wide range of fields such as human resources, communication, IT, competition law, environmental policy, external relations, development policy and more. The European Solidarity Corps (ESC) is an initiative that offers different opportunities for young people aged 18 to 30. It focuses on helping the wider community and promoting solidarity across Europe and beyond. Through volunteering and solidarity projects, participants can engage in projects related to humanitarian aid, social inclusion, environment, culture, education and others. ESC placements can last from 2 months to a year and cover basic costs such as accommodation and food, along with a small allowance for personal expenses. Finding the right traineeship can be challenging, but there are many resources available to help young professionals. The European Personnel Selection Office (EPSO) portal offers a wide array of traineeship programmes with various EU institutions, bodies and agencies. The European Youth Portal provides resources and guidance on how to find and apply for positions across Europe, including volunteering, traineeships, working and studying abroad. In 2024 the Commission proposed an initiative to improve the working conditions of trainees, including pay, as well as the inclusiveness and quality of traineeships in the EU. The initiative will also ensure that regular employment cannot be disguised as traineeships. #EUTraineeships #EUOpportunities #YouthInEurope #EUInternships #EuropeanCommission #EuropeanSolidarityCorps #BlueBookTraineeship #ProfessionalDevelopment #YoungProfessionals #CareerGrowth #EUJobs #SkillsDevelopment #VolunteerOpportunities #FutureOfEurope #WorkInEurope

FH-Prof. in Project Management | Vice Dean, School of Management | Program Director BA “Intercultural Management”
As part of our FACHHOCHSCHULE KÄRNTEN commitment to fostering internationalization, global education, and cultural exchange, School of Management hosted two virtual internships through the Alumni Internship Program, welcoming alumni from the FLEX and YES programs of American Councils for International Education. This initiative aligns with CUAS's dedication to sharing educational opportunities in Austria with young people around the world and enhancing cross-cultural experiences. #partnershipsforgoals #SDGs Thank you, Puhiza Shemsedini and Vladyslava Kobets for your great work, dedication, and connection to our students, alumni, and staff! Thank you for being our international youth reference points and helping us learn more about best approaches to international recruitment! #virtualinternship #internationalrecruitment #studentvoice Learnings from our International Interns: "Through working and communicating in a multicultural team, recruiting students from Kosovo, and collaborating with an institution in Austria, this internship with CUAS reaffirmed the profound power and beauty of multicultural teamwork. I experienced tremendous growth in various areas; I developed practical skills in marketing and recruitment, enhanced my communication and teamwork abilities, and built a cross-border network with incredible people." Puhiza "This 3-month internship not only boosted my professional growth but also provided real experience working on an international team in the global market of students. Creating an effective recruitment strategy for a large institution like a university is not an easy process; it requires a lot of time and effort. However, we had the opportunity to be creative and implement various techniques we could think of. This experience pushed us out of our comfort zones, led us to deeply analyze CUAS and encouraged us to come up with new ideas." Vladyslava Results are in the article below. Grateful to Karīna Vintere for internship facilitation form ACCELS side! #international #partnerships #virtualinternship #fhk #SDGs #education #recruitment #inspiringminds #schoolofmanagement Coordinators: Dr. Bernhard Guetz and myself :)
