National Internship Program 2026 – ANNOUNCEMENT TEXT
Dear Students,
Applications for the National Internship Program, which is eagerly awaited every year and recognized as a model worldwide, have begun for 2026! As of 2026, the Program will be carried out by the Turkish Employment Agency (İŞKUR) under the auspices of the Presidency of the Republic of Türkiye. Within this framework, 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 information fields designed to highlight your competencies. Completing these fields accurately and thoroughly will contribute to your competency score, and each point you earn will bring you closer to opportunities at your target institutions/organizations. Therefore, please ensure that every document you upload meets all verification criteria. The criteria are provided under the “i” icons next to each question in the Application Form.
We would also like to remind you that having applied for or participated/not participated in an internship, job shadowing, or training in previous years does not prevent you from updating your information/documents and applying again this year.
