TRAINEESHIPS
Basic conditions
- The participant must be a full-time student – it is possible to travel as part of a waiting for final exams, or extended year.
- It is not possible to travel as part of interrupted study.
- Exchange must end (and be administratively finalised) no later than the day before final exam (SZZK).
- Each participant can use up to maximum of 12 months in each study cycle of higher education (bachelor, master, doctoral).
- A student can complete one long stay or several shorter ones (but the minimum prescribed length of stay of 2 months must be observed).
- It is important to remember that all study, practical and short-term internships in a given degree add up. This also applies to all previous studies in a given study cycle
- Mobility cannot be carried out in the country where the sending higher education institution is located (i.e. within the Czech Republic), nor with EU institutions and other EU entities, including specialized organizations that manage EU programs.
- Students applying for a traineeship can have credits recognized if their study plan at FAMU includes a subject corresponding to the content of the practical traineeship.
- If the student's study plan does not include such a subject, it is possible to recognize the traineeship as the equivalent of another subject within the study plan – the decision on such recognition is made by the Vice-Dean for Academic Affairs based on a recommendation from the department management.
- It is possible to recognize the traineeship as optional with or without credit evaluation (without credit evaluation, the internship can be listed as an appendix to the diploma)
- In all cases it must be specified in advance in the Learning Agreement, which the student fills out and signs before departure.
Recommended credits for voluntary traineeship:
- 31–90 days – 10 credits
- 91 days and longer – 15 credits
APPLICATION PROCEDURE AND COURSE OF THE TRAINEESHIP
FACULTY ROUND / INTERNAL APPLICATION
- until 31.1. of the relevant calendar year, fill out the INTERNAL ONLINE APPLICATION – applications are submitted for mobilities planned for the following academic year
- find, contact and secure the company where you would like to complete an traineeship and list them in the application
- due to the complicated financing of mobilities outside the EU, we are only realistically able to send approximately 7-8 students per year – when selecting, we recommend that you list a maximum of one institution outside the EU, as there is a risk that such an internship may be denied for financial reasons.
- after the internal round, the departments comment on the registered students and create a ranking (February-March) – this ranking is important when we are allocated funds and the budget is redistributed (June-July)
ACCEPTANCE BY FOREIGN INSTITUTION → CONTRACT
We should have clear information about the budget allocated to FAMU by the end of June. You will then be confirmed whether you can count on a financial contribution for the internship.
All documentation related to the trip must be completed no later than 4 weeks before the start of the traineeship.
Via the ONLINE FORM // BEFORE DEPARTURE, submit the documents for preparing the participation contract and the related attachments:
- institution's invitation letter – free form, letterhead, exact description of internship content, duration, signature + stamp
- based on the invitation letter prepare and complete the Before Mobility section of the Learning Agreement for the Traineehip – see list of documents
- for help see How to prepare Learning Agreement.
- along with LA it is necessary to deliver Agreement with the Erasmus study plan (see list of documents) – similar to the LA but for internal use + ISP
- arrange travel insurance for the entire duration of your stay – insurance for medical expenses, additional accident and liability for damage
- (optional) other documents related to the increase in the INCLUSION support contribution (cannot be granted retroactively)
- (optional) affidavit (see list of documents) and travel documents for the ecological form of transport Green Erasmus (cannot be granted retroactively)
After submitting the documents, the faculty coordinator prepares a participation agreement, passes it on to the rectorate for review and then presents it to the student for signature – THE AGREEMENT MUST BE SIGNED PHYSICALLY.
Without a signed agreement and fully signed additional annexes (department approval, Learning Agreement), it is not possible to pay out the financial contribution.
Note: given that the preparation of documents before departure for the winter semester takes place during the summer holidays, we recommend not leaving anything to the last minute.
COURSE OF THE trAINEESHIP (AND CHANGES)
After the delivery of all the necessary documents, the student will receive a financial contribution before departure according to the financial agreement based on the destination and duration of the exchange.
Note. If the mobility continues into the next calendar year, the payment of the financial contribution is proportionally divided into two installments – the second installment is paid during January of the following year.
If there are any changes during the course of the exchange a new document Agreement with the Erasmus+ study plan is required (you can omit the part abou ISP) - only after submitting this document will the faculty coordinator approve the modified Learning Agreement (During Mobility section)
Note: Credits can only be recognized for an traineeship if this was specified when signing the Learning Agreement before departure.
AFTER THE RETURN
In order to successfully complete the traineeship, it is necessary
- to submit the last part of the Learning Agreement: After Mobility – completed and signed by the foreign company – this document must be sent from the email address of the company that provided the traineeship directly to the faculty coordinator's email address: erasmus@famu.cz
If the number of days in the delivered After Mobility confirmation differs significantly from the data in the participation contract, the rectorate will calculate a proportional part of the financial contribution that the student will return.
- If there are supposed to be credits recognized for the traineeship, student must complete the Proof of Recognition form (see list of documents). The completed and signed Proof of Recognition form is handed over by the student to the head of the foreign department within 14 days after returning from the study exchange.
Fulfillment of the study plan from the Learning Agreement and the recognition of individual subjects is assessed by the Head of the department or Vice-Dean for Study Affairs in accordance with the student's study program. Afterwards the Registrar Office of the faculty enters the recognized subjects and credit assessment in the KOS study information system. Credits can only be recognized if this was specified when signing the Learning Agreement before departure.
- Within 30 days, the student fills in the final report in the Erasmus+ students' final report database.
If all the mentioned documents are not submitted after the return, student will be subject to sanctions in accordance with the participation contract. In practice, this can mean the return of up to the entire financial contribution.
