Traineeships at the Committee of the Regions

Every year, the European Committee of the Regions (CoR) offers a limited number of university graduates a five-month traineeship:

from 16 February to 15 July (spring session)
from 16 September to 15 February of the following year (autumn session)

Each trainee is assigned to a specific department of the CoR. The nature of the work depends largely on the unit. Some units are more politically oriented, others are more administrative. In general, the type of work assigned is equivalent to that performed by junior executive-grade officials (AD5).

The aim of the traineeship within the CoR is:

to provide a unique, first-hand experience of the workings of the CoR in particular, and of the EU institutions in general
to acquire practical experience and knowledge of the day-to-day work of the Committee's departments
to work in a multicultural and multilingual environment
to put into practice knowledge acquired during studies, particularly in your areas of competence

Deadline Application: 31-03-2016
