Call For Applications: European Commission Blue Book Traineeship Program 2026 (Full Sponsorship with €1,493 stipend Per Month)

The European Commission Blue Book Traineeship Program offers a monthly stipend of €1,49, covers the full travel and medical costs, and opens doors to future employment opportunities.

The European Commission proposes 2 types of Blue Book Traineeship: an Administrative Traineeship or a Translation Traineeship with the Directorate-General for Translation (DGT).

The traineeship programme is open to all eligible candidates whatever their citizenship, regardless of their sex, race, colour, ethnic or social origin, religion or belief, membership of a national minority, disability, age or sexual orientation.

Trainees work all over the European Commission, its services and agencies, mostly in Brussels, but also in Luxembourg and elsewhere across the European Union.

European Commission Blue Book Traineeship is much more than just a professional experience. Each batch of trainees organises a huge range of non-formal learning, social activities, from football to wine-tasting and much in between – in true bureaucratic fashion, each with its own organising committee.
