We offer a traineeship contract of 6 months, renewable for a maximum of another 6 months and a monthly traineeship grant of € 1500 and travel allowance at the beginning and at the end of the traineeship if trainees need to change their place of residence by more than 100 km.

In principle, we plan to advertise the next trainee intake around October 2025, depending on budget availability. Additional publication dates in line with the Decision of the Executive Director No 42/2023 on the EUAA traineeship programme due to unforeseen circumstances are also possible.
