Before you say yes

Ask whether your placement requires a convenio de prácticas with your education provider. Establish the training arrangement and any registration obligations before accepting.

This is an orientation guide, not an individual eligibility decision. Your citizenship, study status, internship type and duration determine which rules apply. Follow the official source and obtain confirmation for your situation.

Your five practical checks

  1. Ask your institution whether the placement meets your learning and recognition requirements.
  2. Request written duties, dates, hours, supervision and pay or allowance.
  3. Confirm the right to intern, any local registration and relevant permits.
  4. Check healthcare, accident and liability insurance cover.
  5. Verify housing, deposit terms and your budget before booking travel.

Find real opportunities

Use employer career pages, your institution’s network and specialist internship platforms. Check each listing’s date, employer identity, working language and educational requirements.
