When you bring an intern into your organisation, it's important to understand what this entails and what you need to submit to Jobsplus:
- About Internships and Traineeships: These are work practices for a limited time, designed for students or recent graduates to gain hands-on experience before starting regular employment. Internships or traineeships combine work practice with training. Interns document this experience in their CVs, helping them transition from education to the labor market or fulfilling educational curriculum requirements.
- Duration and Nature: Typically, internships last a few weeks to 6 months, but they can extend up to 12 months. In educational contexts, they may be optional or mandatory parts of a curriculum or graduation process.
- Registration Requirements: Governed by the Work-Based Learning and Apprenticeship Act, internships/traineeships are considered employment relationships. Therefore, the hosting organisation (your organisation) must submit an Engagement Form to Jobsplus.
- Special Case for Third Country Nationals: If the intern or trainee is a Third Country National, the organisation hosting them (your organisation) must also apply for an Employment License from Jobsplus.
