Credits are granted upon application and confirmation of internship. Granting credits is not claimable. The adequacy of internship must be consulted and approved before its beginning.

This course allows students to have their chosen internship or volunteering activity acknowledged for credits. Before registration of this course students have to request for a prior approval of internship (by the attached form). They should choose any kind of internship that develops student's competences and is in line with their own curriculum. Below there is a list of several NGOs, but a student can choose whatever internship they want and which is approved. Volunteering in an NGO, both paid and non-paid internships/part-time jobs in private companies or government institutions can be acknowledged as well if they provide some additional value related to the study curriculum. Conditions of the internship have to be negotiated and agreed upon by students themselves. Faculty does not take any responsibility for communication or any interaction between students and institutions which host them as an intern/volunteer/employee.

Please send approval requests and other forms to: veronika.kucabova@fhs.cuni.cz.
