International traineeships

An international traineeship is a great opportunity to apply the theory from your studies to real life situations. During a traineeship you will gain practical work experience, develop your language skills, make professional connections and increase your employability in your selected field. You may also be eligible for an Erasmus+ scholarship to support your stay abroad.

Below you will find adverts from international organizations looking for trainees. Under “search tools” you can find search engines advertising traineeships around the world. Remember to research your traineeship carefully, Karlstad Business School is not responsible for checking advertisements.

You need to have your international traineeship approved by your traineeship course instructor and registered via the international office. Read more about this under "More about international traineeships" on the menu to the right.
