Job Shadowing Periods for Partner Companies

Finnish companies cooperating with Sataedu in the field of working life have the opportunity to send a representative abroad for a job shadowing period. The duration of the visit with a Sataedu representative to an international partner can be between 2 and 60 days. The Erasmus+ programme covers travel and accommodation costs.

During the period, the company representative will have the opportunity to get to know the foreign working culture, international students who may be participate in an international mobility period through Sataedu and to network with new companies and institutions.

The placement period for a potential international student is cost-effective in terms of company resources. For the company’s staff, it is also a low-threshold internationalisation, a so-called ’home internationalisation’.

Sataedu will start planning the mobilities with the interested parties, and these mobilities will take place in the academic year 2024-2025.
