Suggestions for Future Interns

1. The future interns should communicate with the person in charged of the internship programme on which the interns would like to assign with before report to the European Parliament.
    
2. The interns should first study the responsibilities and tasks of the committee that they would be assigned to. My personal view is that the intern is advisable to be assigned to the committee that he/she is interested or with similar knowledge/ experience in his/her organization in their home country. By doing so, may be they can contribute constructive ideas to the group or implement the good practices learnt in parliament to their organization reciprocally.
    
3. Interns are advisable to visit the ALDE group website www.alde.eu to get a better picture on how the group is working as well as the roles and responsibilities of ALDE.
    
4. www.europarl.europa.eu is an useful website that the interns should not miss prior or during his/her stay in Brussels and Strasbourg.
    
5. Interns are advisable to refer to the screen of the meeting (TV installed at every corner in EP) on daily basis. All the meetings to be held in the EP will be published with the details of time and venue.
    
6. Interns may refer to the stagiaire’s (interns) list for getting to know the other stagiaires. Try to mix around and to obtain information.
    
7. Interns may take his/her own initiative to attend the meetings that he/she interested irregardless of the committees. Generally the interns are free and welcome to take part in any committees meeting.
