Within the framework of the ECTA-ELSA cooperation, we wish to inform you about the following opportunity to participate in ELSA’s Student Trainee Exchange Programme (STEP) as a Traineeship Provider.

The STEP Programme offers ELSA members and non-ELSA members legal work opportunities in different jurisdictions around the world. The STEP Traineeships are available for students, graduates and young lawyers who study or have studied law at university level.

For Traineeship Providers the participation in STEP is free of charge and there are no administrative costs. ELSA assists the participating organisations by promoting the vacancies offered by the Traineeship Providers and by short-listing the applications that meet the minimum requirements set by the Traineeship Provider.

More information on STEP, on the procedure and the timeline can be found HERE, as well as in the STEP Media Card and on the STEP website. If you are willing to become a Traineeship Provider, please submit the Traineeship Specification Form for the upcoming intake (intake 2) no later than 3 April 2020.
