How to activate a curricular internship

Activation

To activate the internship:

1. Contact the referent for the traineeships of your course

2. Get signed a Training Agreement between the chosen company and UniGe. Once signed, it has to be returned to emaro-robeng@dibris.unige.it as a scanned copy

3. Agree with the company contact person (company tutor) and with the university tutor (a professor of your course of study)

4. Download and complete the Training Project. Please remember that the document must be signed by you (“the trainee”), by your academic tutor and by your training tutor. Once filled, signed and stamped by the Company, it also has to be returned as a scanned copy.

The company tutor will:

• introduce you to the work environment
• encourage your ambition
• evaluate your path and the achievement of training objectives at the end of the experience

End of traineeship

At the end of the internship period you have to submit the following documents to the Student Desk:

• declaration by the company stating the training period and the indication of the successful conclusion

• hours form filled in and signed by you and the company tutor

Evaluation

If you had work experience or voluntary activities that are "in line" with the objectives of the traineeship provided by your degree course, you can request that these activities be recognised as "substitutes" for the traineeship. You have to submit the following documents to the Student Desk:

• a request for recognition addressed to the Degree Course Council
• certification of the company or association where you have worked or you are still working, signed by the legal representative, in which the professional function performed is explicitly mentioned
• detailed report on the activity, skills, knowledge and competences that you believe have been acquired and indicating the relationship between the university study and work practice; this report, signed by you, must be countersigned by the legal representative of the company

All the documentation will be examined by the Traineeship Committee, which will approve or reject your application.

You have to submitte all the documentation by the middle of each month in order to obtain, in case of a positive evaluation by the appropriate committee, the registration of the traineeship in the first days of the following month.
