Thanks to the collaboration of our Basque Member ADEGI, Basque graduates under the age of 30 can access a scholarship sponsoring for internships in SMEs in foreign countries (mainly EU). SMEs from all over Europe searched to offer a placement.
The GLOBAL TRAINING programme is sponsored by the Basque Government. The programme aims to offer to Basque University and Vocational Training graduates under the age of 30 an extended period of professional experience in their field in another country.
ADEGI in collaboration with Confebask and Hetel manages some 60 of a total 370 GLOBAL TRAINING scholarships each year on behalf of the Basque Government.
The GLOBAL TRAINING programme provides selected interns with full sponsorship for six months. This includes a scholarship of approx 6.750 €, or 1.125€/month, full insurance covering accident and third party liability and a 50 hour training course on competence development and internationalization prior to departure.
ADEGI is currently preparing the new programme of offers to present to the Basque Government sponsors in the next few weeks; the fortunate selected interns will take up their placements in November 2015.
