Applications for the National Internship Program 2026 are now open!

The National Internship Program, eagerly awaited every year and cited as an example worldwide, is now accepting applications for 2026!

Starting in 2026, under the auspices of the Presidency and administered by the Turkish Employment Agency (İŞKUR), you can apply via https://ulusalstajprogrami.iskur.gov.tr ​​to benefit from early career opportunities such as internships, job shadowing, and training offered by public institutions and organizations, universities, and thousands of private sector companies. During the application process, you will encounter knowledge areas that highlight your skills. Completing these areas accurately and completely will contribute to your competency score, and each point you earn will bring you closer to the opportunities at your target institution/organization. Therefore, you must ensure that every document you upload meets all the approval criteria. The criteria are located next to each question in the "Application Form" using the "i" buttons. We would also like to remind you that having applied for, participated in, or not participated in internships/job shadowing or training in previous years does not prevent you from updating your information/documents and reapplying this year.
