Starting a new job/internship in Brussels or in your home country and you need to work with EU affairs? Or are you still a student but will graduate this summer and do you already want to familiarise yourself with the skills needed in EU public affairs? Do you want to be a step ahead and add value to your organisation from day one? Do you want to broaden your network and make friends? This is your chance!

This practical masterclass will provide you with the skills and knowledge you need know to succeed as an EU affairs intern, future intern or junior. The following elements are included:

4. The programme includes real-life case studies, and you will receive practical tips and tricks which you can apply immediately in your work as an EU professional.

What former participants have said:

"An extremely interesting and useful training! From the part on the sociology of the different actors of the Brussels bubble to the practical tips on monitoring, every moment was used to get the most out of this training day. A real asset for all young professionals starting in EU affairs. Kudos to the limited number of participants and the professionalism and kindness of Shannon and Milos!"

"The EU super interns masterclass was a useful opportunity to refresh my knowledge of the EU institutions work just before the start of my traineeship as a policy officer at the European Boating Industry. The masterclass enabled me to effectively use policy monitoring tools and filter out what was truly relevant for the advocacy work of my team. I even organised an event with EU policy-makers and members of the academia for which the insights provided by the masterclass were very useful."

"In de eerste week van mijn stage heb ik de masterclass gevolgd. Het was enorm waardevol omdat de masterclass mij meer inzicht gaf over hoe de verschillende Europese instanties met elkaar samenwerken, maar ook hoe zij van buitenaf beïnvloed kunnen worden door bijvoorbeeld gericht te lobbyen."
