Essential Steps for Conducting an Internship (Practical Training)
A. Student registration for the Internship course within their School.
B. Student registration in the NTUA Student Internship Information System. Strict electronic submission of all required documents by the student by the annual deadline.
At the web address http://praktiki.ntua.gr select «Login to PRAXIS». Using the password you use for semester registration, you log into the information system and then click «Register»
On the displayed form, you must fill in at least all the mandatory fields and then click «Register» at the bottom right of your screen.
After the successful registration message appears, return to the homepage and select «Submit Documents» to upload the required supporting documents.
(in electronic format)
The EFKA Registration Certificate is issued exclusively by EFKA branches (formerly IKA) upon presentation of the student's police identity card, Tax Identification Number (AFM), and Social Insurance Number (AMKA).
Students who already possess a Social Security Registration Number (AMA)-either because they are insured under the former IKA themselves or through a parent’s insurance—may submit a photocopy of the page from their health booklet showing both their AMA and AMKA. Alternatively, students may submit the EFKA Registration Certificate, which can be issued electronically via the e-ΕΦΚΑ, platform, provided they are registered users.
Important Notice: If you are already insured with another social security fund, you are still required to follow the above procedure. This does not imply a change of your insurance provider.
The three (3) electronic files may be submitted in parts.
At the end of the process, you are not required to log out. All submitted documents are saved automatically, and you may simply close your browser.
Registration and document submission will no longer be possible after the deadline, and consequently, participation in the Internship Program will be denied.
The above steps are mandatory for all students at the National Technical University of Athens (NTUA).
C. Student Registration in the «ATLAS» System
At the web address https://atlas.grnet.gr/ select Registration/Login → Undergraduate Student, and register using the credentials you use for enrollment in each academic semester.

At the web address http://praktiki.ntua.gr select «Schools» and then click «Download Cooperation Protocol». In the form that appears, where all fields with your personal information are pre-filled, you will need to fill in the details of the organization and its representative and the details of the cooperation protocol, and then click «Download».
You will print the COOPERATION PROTOCOL in four (4) copies, sign it yourself, and ensure that it is also signed and stamped by the representative of the Host Organization (all 4 copies).
The two (2) copies, stamped and signed by the NTUA representatives, are returned to the student (one for the student and one for the Host Organization).
The deadline for submitting the signed and stamped Cooperation Protocols to the NTUA Internship Office is the 10th of the month preceding the start of the Internship.
The student also signs the ELKE contract on the day of submitting the cooperation protocols to the NTUA Internship Office.
The questionnaire can be completed one (1) week before the start of the internship up to and including the first day of the internship.
The student must deliver the signed and stamped copy of the cooperation protocol to the Host Organization before the start of the internship so that the Host Organization can submit the internship commencement notification to the "ERGANI" Information System on time.
The questionnaire must be completed immediately after the end of the internship and no later than five (5) calendar days afterwards.
