Conditions and details for applying for an internship with the CATAMARAN

• You must be over 18
• You must have a good knowledge of English  in order to understand the course and express yourself correctly in the field
• Each internship is a specialised internship combining theoretical and practical work. It is therefore an efficient way for education and complementary training, but above all it is a life-changing internship. The student will be exposed to a new way of life and will learn more about himself and other;
• SOLIDARITÉ can propose internship themes to students who hope for but internship topics proposed by the students themselves, depending on their studies and their wishes are favoured and encouraged;
• The goal for the student is to become independent in the preparation and the achievement of his internship. Hence, once the theoretical training finished, the students complete their internship in immersion: on the field, they will have to get a high capacity of adaptation and a self-running work, assisted by their supervisor;
