Managing and ending internships in Italy

The host institution has to enter any requests to cancel an internship on the portal by accessing the “Details” of the internship training programme and clicking on Chiusura -> annullamento. Such request relates only to properly activated internship which never started (the cancellation date entered in the request must match the planned date for the start of the activities).

The Job Placement office does not need to be notified of any absences (daily and/or hourly) of the trainee. Such absences must be agreed between the host institution and the trainee.

All the activities set out in the training programme can be carried out in another location, under the supervision of the company tutor and/or his/her deputy.

Where such transfers are not stated in the programme, at least 24 before of the transfer, it’s necessary to send an email to [email protected] indicating the transfer period, address of tranfer, company tutor and the reasons for the transfer.

Minimum suspension periods of 15 days can only be requested in the event of company closure and suspension of the activities by the host institution. Minimum suspension periods of 30 days can only be requested in the event of illness or accident befalling the trainee, or pregnancy.

The host institution must enter any requests to suspend an internship on the portal by accessing the “Details” of the internship training programme.

The Job Placement office will approve or reject the request, at which point the host institution and the trainee will receive an email notifying them of the decision.

The period of suspension may be made up by requesting an extension.

The host institution must enter any requests to extend an internship on the portal by accessing the “Details” of the internship training programme at least 3 days before the extension is due to commence.

The Job Placement office will approve or reject the request, at which point the host institution and the trainee will receive an email notifying them of the decision.

The maximum duration of extracurricular internship is 12 calendar months, excluding any suspensions previously entered and approved.

In order to terminate the internship early, the host institution must enter the early termination date on the portal by accessing accessing the “Details” of the internship training programme and clicking on the relevant button.
