Testimonials on the Internship
Traineeship
I had the opportunity to take part in a traineeship at Europe for Business (EFB) a company which focus
on supporting Industrial and Research organisations in defining and implementing their innovation and
research strategies, to solve societal problems. Even though the traineeship was a long distance one, it
was a busy one. Gaining a "real world" perspective on the occupation of a project manager, in the field of
European project, planning and management. During the three months traineeship, I developed practical
skills on how to develop competitive proposals and create networks and partnerships. EFB is active in
the field of dissemination, communication, training activities as well as, coordination and support actions.
The traineeship mentor and his personal assistant, EFB project manager, were available at any given
moment, during the traineeship. Regular contact through skype meetings and other types of
communication medium were used.
The internship was a valuable resource and a great learning experience. It has broadened my
understanding of the European funding world in general and has given me a strong foundation and
valuable experience for my future career.
