Dear Sir / Madam Thank you very much for your interest in selecting Malta for your Students’ Internships Work Experience. Through our well established contacts with both public and private entities we provide students with interesting unpaid work placements by matching their expertise with that of the placement organisation. Students are required to reside in accommodation provided by us for the duration of their internship. Our student apartments are provided on a self catering and shared basis and include the following: Comfortable living and dining area Well equipped kitchen Bedrooms on a single or shared basis 2 Sets of bed linen and towels per person Fans (for summer) Gas heater for winter (at an additional charge) Free Internet connection (Wi-Fi) per apartment Cable TV Telephone line (to be used with pre-paid cards) Washing machine Iron and ironing board Maintenance service. Electricity and water consumption included in the price and subject to normal consumption Weekly maid service to clean floors, windows and bathrooms. (Students are to keep the apartment tidy, especially the kitchen). No fixed check in / checkout time. In reasonable proximity to work placement, shopping, clinic and entertainment outlets Students will be asked to sign a rental agreement and will be expected to abide by the house rules. Our accommodation will cost EURO 12.40 per person per day (€375 per month) and it is on shared basis. This means that the students will share the accommodation and the bedroom with other interns. Should your students prefer a single bedroom we can provide that at EURO 15.65 per person per day (€475 per month) in a shared apartment. We have few single rooms, so early booking is recommended. Single rooms are let out on a single occupancy basis. Friends, family or guests are not permitted to sleep in the apartment. Upon the students’ arrival in Malta they will attend a Welcome Meeting in our office. This meeting introduces them to Malta, the Maltese culture and work ethic and their work placement. A work plan is also discussed. This usually takes place on the first working day after the student’s arrival. Each student’s progress is monitored on a regular basis. Events, trips and activities can be organised for students to get to know more about Malta. Students are also given a list of current events taking place during their stay in Malta. At the end of their internship, each student will receive their Euro Pass, a performance appraisal, internship certificate and a reference letter from their mentor as well as other reports and necessary paperwork. Transport can be provided at a charge of EURO 25 (per person) each way to or from the airport. Transport on arrival is strongly advised, especially if arrivals take place outside office hours. Each student interested to follow a work placement in Malta is required to send the following documents and preferably two months prior to arrival. CV and a letter describing what they would like to do during their internship A letter of reference from the University If possible the exact dates and duration of their stay in Malta Please note we require CVs and details of students as early as possible prior to their arrival in Malta and preferably two months in advance to avoid an administration/management fee. Furthermore, we offer a 5% discount where we receive full payment at least two months prior to arrival. We require a non refundable deposit of EURO 250 as your confirmation of the accommodation and for us to start sourcing a work placement. This sum will be deducted from the total amount due. We strongly suggest that you follow an English language course and we will provide guidance according to your level. A course is 20 hours long and costs EURO 350.
