What Are VET Internships in Lithuania?
Lithuania's booming fintech sector and rich baroque heritage create unique Erasmus+ placement opportunities in the Baltic region. Concrete reasons institutions choose Lithuania for VET Internship Programs. VET internships in Lithuania are short, supervised work placements in real companies for vocational students, funded under Erasmus+ KA1 (KA121 / KA122). Piktalent acts as the local intermediary in Lithuania: we source and vet host companies in fintech & finance, it & technology and business & logistics, arrange safe accommodation near the workplace, run the airport pickup and induction, and provide a 24/7 in-country support line throughout the placement. Each cohort closes with Europass Mobility certificates and ECVET-aligned host evaluations for the sending school.

What's Included
Every programme includes comprehensive services managed end-to-end by Piktalent.
Sector-matched host companies
Mapped to how Lithuania employers in fintech & finance — from Vilnius onward — actually onboard interns, not to a one-size-fits-all checklist. Companies in fintech & finance, it & technology, business & logistics vetted for workplace safety, mentoring capacity and Erasmus+ compliance.
Inspected accommodation
Across Lithuania's fintech & finance corridor anchored in Vilnius, our local desk runs this step end-to-end so the sending school never chases vendors. Student residences or shared apartments near the workplace, with move-in instructions sent before departure.
Insurance & liability coverage
Coordinators based in Vilnius, Lithuania make this concrete for every fintech & finance cohort, with named contacts on both sides. Travel, medical and civil-liability insurance for the full mobility period.
24/7 in-country support
In Lithuania this stage flows through our Vilnius regional team covering fintech & finance hosts, so timelines stay aligned with the learning agreement. A dedicated coordinator in Lithuania plus a 24/7 emergency line throughout the placement.
Audit-ready closure pack
Built around Lithuania's fintech & finance host expectations from Vilnius outward and the regional cost band so budgets stay predictable. Europass Mobility certificate, attendance log, host-company evaluation and Beneficiary Module documentation.
