Application guidelines

Instructions and supporting documents

  • Institutions and companies submit a single application. It is divided into two parts, with one part containing information about the applicant company/institution and the other part containing information about the number of students and the number of weeks for each subject.

  • The grant period is from 1 November to 31 October each year.

  • The amount of the grants depends on the budget allocations for this category and demand.

  • Grants are awarded to those who meet the conditions, and the amount depends on demand and the number of applications.

  • The maximum number of weeks per student is 48 per year.

  • Each student must be accompanied by a pay-as-you-earn (PAYE) tax certificate, the last payslip of the year, or other documents confirming that the weeks applied for were worked during the relevant period.

  • Each student must be accompanied by a signed workplace learning agreement that has been created in the student's electronic logbook.

Application system

  • To access the application form, you need to log in to the Rannís application system – My Pages using electronic identification. If the user is abroad, they may need to use the authentication app rather than authentication via a phone number.

  • Instructions for Rannís My Pages.

  • It is not necessary for the applicant to be the logged-in user in the application system, but it is preferable if possible. An individual can be the logged-in user in the application system but specify another applicant in the application.

  • After an application has been submitted, it will appear under “Applications->Submitted” on the My Pages of the user who submitted it.
