La Giraudiere Internship agreement
Joint Agreements Both parties agree to the following four basic tenets of the internship;
- 1. There will be no binding contract between the Intern and the provider, and it is for this reason that an agreement is prepared as opposed to a contract.
- 2. This is an unpaid learning and training internship
- 3. This internship is not replacing a paid role or someone’s job.
- 4. The principal objective of the internship is to provide training, work place experience and skills to the intern.
The Internship agreement will be between the intern, who will be referred to as the intern and La Giraudière, the internship provider, who will be referred to as the provider. No other party would be concerned with this agreement unless you are seeking academic credit or you are applying for Erasmus Funding.
In the case of academic credit an internship an agreement with credit would be used and your university or faculty would be referred to as The School or University. Similar to Erasmus funded internships a learning agreement would be used and your university/faculty would be referred to as the sending institution.
The provider will agree to;
Provide accommodation, meals, transfers, excursions and all that is listed upon the webpage “an all-inclusive internship in France” (see web page all-inclusive internship)
Provide initial orientation, regular meetings, appropriate appraisals, and training in each task or duties allotted to the intern;
Designate one person to be responsible for supervising the intern, to be called the Mentor;
Provide a variety of tasks and duties for the intern which are consistent with both the interns goal or objectives and also those of the provider;

To issue to the intern, upon completion of the internship with good performance, the following: a Certificate of Internship, a Letter of Achievement, and a Certificate of French Language Attainment. A letter of recommendation may also be provided when required.
The intern agrees;
