National Internship Program 2026 Applications Have Started!

Dear Student,

Applications for the 2026 National Internship Program, eagerly awaited every year and recognized as a model worldwide, have now begun! As of 2026, the Program will be carried out by the Turkish Employment Agency (İŞKUR) under the auspices of the Presidency. Within this program, you can 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 by applying via:
https://ulusalstajprogrami.iskur.gov.tr

During the application, you will encounter information fields that will highlight your competencies. Filling in these fields accurately and completely will contribute to your competency score, and each point you earn will bring you closer to opportunities in the institutions/organizations you aim for. Therefore, you should make sure that every document you upload meets all verification criteria. The criteria can be found under the “i” buttons next to each question in the “Application Form.”

In addition, please note that having applied to, participated in, or not participated in internships, job shadowing, or training programs in previous years does not prevent you from applying again this year by updating your information/documents.
