Process

How it works

From application to first working day. Screening and paperwork take time — count on one week to two months, depending on how quickly the certificate of conduct is issued.

Step by step

  1. 1. Apply
    Fill in the application form. Tell us your study programme, your available period and the number of days per week.
  2. 2. Complete the introduction
    Take the free DIVD Academy Introduction so you know what we do and how we work.
  3. 3. Intake meeting
    We plan a short online meeting to match your learning goals to a project. You can book it yourself via our booking page.
  4. 4. Certificate of conduct (VOG)
    You receive an email from Justis to request a free certificate of conduct. The digital version is fastest; a photo of the paper version also works.
  5. 5. Agreement
    You, your school and DIVD Academy sign the internship agreement, which includes our code of conduct.
  6. 6. Accounts
    You receive a Google Workspace invitation, set up two-factor authentication (mandatory) and activate your Slack account.
  7. 7. Onboarding
    You get the handbook, meet your practical supervisor and your project team, and introduce yourself in Slack.
  8. 8. Start
    You begin contributing. Progress meetings and the phase meeting with your school are planned along the way.

While you wait

Screening takes time, so use it: join the open DIVD.community Slack, meet people from the DIVD family and browse the courses you can already start.
