    What Is Job Shadowing in Slovenia?

    Slovenia's green, compact geography and growing economy offer quality Erasmus+ placements between the Alps and the Adriatic. Concrete reasons institutions choose Slovenia for Job Shadowing & Internship Hosting. Job shadowing in Slovenia is a structured Erasmus+ KA1 staff-mobility format where teachers, trainers or administrative staff observe peers at a host organisation in Slovenia. It is typically 3 to 14 days. Piktalent acts as the local intermediary: we match staff with institutional hosts in green economy & sustainability, tourism & hospitality and business & logistics, brief the host on the observation focus, organise accommodation and insurance, and provide on-the-ground support. We also host your students for internships, so a single contract covers both your staff and learner flows.
