Lisbon City Council Internship Program

This program is implemented under the Lisbon Municipality Internship Regulation (REML), which provides for three types of internship:

  • Vocational training internships (VET) - aim to support the transition between the qualification system and the labor market, helping to improve, complete and perfect the skills previously acquired by the internship beneficiaries, through training and practical experience in a work context, and to promote the insertion of young people or the professional retraining of the unemployed
  • Traineeships qualifying for the exercise of aregulated profession (EH) - aimed at fulfilling additional and specific requirements for access to the professional title of a profession regulated by a professional Order or Public Association. Internships are developed in accordance with the municipality's strategic objectives and the availability of the municipality's services to accommodate interns

International internships

Colaboração no acolhimento de estagiários ao abrigo do programa de mobilidade Europeu Erasmus+

In existence since 1987, the Erasmus Program is the most successful mobility program launched by the European Commission.

Erasmus+ is the European programme that supports education, training, youth and sport and gives more than four million Europeans the opportunity to study, train and gain experience abroad as it is not only aimed at students but also at a wide variety of people and organizations.

Lisbon City Council, as a partner of the Erasmus Al Sud Consortium since 2011, is essential to the operationalization of the Erasmus+ Internship Programme, which aims to contribute to increased mobility and the acquisition of skills that contextualize the academic knowledge acquired by students.

The Erasmus Al Sud Consortium - Connecting regions, creating worlds, was created in 2012 by the Universities of Algarve, Évora and Lisbon and the Polytechnic Institutes of Beja and Setúbal and covers an academic community of 77,624 students, 6,416 teaching staff and 3,311 non-teaching staff. With a strong regional impact, Erasmus Al Sud contributes to the internationalization of its member institutions by promoting mobility opportunities for learning (studies and internships), teaching and training in European partner institutions and strengthening cooperation and participation in international networks.

In 2011, the municipality of Lisbon submitted and had accepted an application to the European Erasmus+ program, which provided mobility for a number of municipal employees in order to help encourage transnational mobility and promote bilateral and multilateral partnerships, as well as improving the quality of education and training systems.
