Are you looking for an internship that really suits you? The Lifeport Regional Internship Pact is committed to improving internship opportunities for students in the Lifeport Arnhem-Nijmegen region. Educational institutions, organisations and, to date, 32 employers are working together to tackle common challenges relating to internships.
Thanks to this collaboration, as a student, you are not on your own. The Internship Pact focuses on ensuring there are sufficient and suitable internship placements, good supervision during your placement, fair remuneration and equal opportunities for everyone. Active efforts are also being made to prevent discrimination in internships, so that every student has a fair chance to gain experience and develop their skills.
