The European Union Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER) has launched a call for applications for its traineeship program, inviting motivated and qualified university graduates to seize a valuable professional development opportunity in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
ACER was established in March 2011 to foster cooperation among the national regulatory authorities (NRAs) for energy in the EU and help ensure that a single European market for electricity, and similarly natural gas, functions well.
The organization’s traineeship program is open to university graduates who have completed at least three years of studies, a bachelor’s degree or equivalent, in EU member states, Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein. Applicants must demonstrate strong proficiency in at least two EU languages, one of which is English.
All interested candidates can apply by filling out the traineeship application form
Traineeships last between three and six months and can be extended once for up to an additional six months, offering a total potential duration of one year. Participants gain technical and operational experience by contributing to the agency’s daily work, while deepening their knowledge of EU structures and ACER’s procedures.
Trainees who are not already receiving a salary, scholarship, or other form of financial support will get a monthly grant of EUR 1,268.18. Additional support includes reimbursement of travel expenses for the trainees who completed at least a three-month traineeship period. All trainees are granted a monthly public transport pass for use within Ljubljana.
All interested candidates can apply by filling out the traineeship application form, attaching a copy of their diploma, and sending it to Traineeship(at)acer.europa.eu
This is a unique chance to join a diverse and intellectually engaging workplace while contributing to the energy future of Europe.
