Since 2013 we have been specializing on international Erasmus+ internships of recent graduates. Every year we send for internships over 250 students and graduates into companies abroad.  As a consortium coordinator we fully administrate the internships and provide interns with the Erasmus+  financial grant to help them cover their living expenses abroad.

This is why we are happy to announce our new internship portal SolidIntern from WorkSpace Europe.

With our Solid Intern portal we want to help Slovak and Czech students of partnering Universities in finding suitable host organizations for their internships easier and connect them with employers from across Europe.

We work closely with companies and we appreciate every employer receiving international students for internships and giving them the opportunity to gain practical skills in their teams.

We fully understand what valuable time and effort companies put into finding the right candidates.

Therefore with our Solid Intern portal we want to help companies to access the right candidates and make the selection and Erasmus+ administration process simple and effective.

• We pre-validate every student in the database to make sure they fulfill the eligibility criteria for obtaining the Erasmus+ grant.
• Solid Intern portal has been designed to promoting the internship offers only to the relevant candidates according to their selection criteria.

This way the company offers are getting to the relevant candidates and companies do not have to worry about the Erasmus+ administration process of the selected trainees.

We work with students and fresh graduates of the following 15 universities, covering wide range of specialisations:

Comenius University in Bratislava
University of Economics Bratislava
University of Ss. Cyril and Methodius in Trnava
Technical University in Zvolen
Alexander Dubček University of Trenčín
University of Veterinary medicine and Pharmacy Košice
Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava
The School of Management – City University of Seattle, Bratislava
