Internships for Bioanalyst students can be completed through sampling work or various laboratory tasks in specialised fields, based on the progression of the studies. We offer a wide range of internship opportunities in outpatient sampling and ward sampling, modern laboratory environments for chemistry and haematology, as well as special laboratories in the medical specialties of pathology, genetics, microbiology, immunology, and molecular biology. We also offer internships for those in advanced studies in the fertility treatment laboratory, scientific research services and IT tasks . Internships for bioanalyst students will be open to applications via Jobiili system.
We collaborate closely with vocational schools to ensure that the needs of studies and work are fulfilled. Our collaboration involves regular meetings, a working life forum, networks, and guidance group work.
We offer practical nursing students the opportunity to complete sampling training as part of their second-degree studies in sample collection centres, a healthcare centre environment and outpatient laboratories.
Fimlab also arranges courses on “Sampling and customer service in nursing” as optional studies for the practical nursing degree in collaboration with various educational institutions in its areas of operation. In many of these courses, Fimlab’s experts will teach the theoretical lectures. Work-based learning and demonstrations of competency are carried out in Fimlab’s service locations. The optional courses are open to applications according to the standard application methods of the institutions. After graduation, practical nurses who have completed these optional courses are fully qualified to perform sampling work at Fimlab.
Practical nursing graduates, who want to branch into new avenues of work, can also inquire educational institutions about the opportunity to apply to the optional courses on “Sampling and customer service in nursing.” It is recommended to ask directly about opportunities at the institutions that have the right to award the degree and are responsible for the student selection based on their own applicant situation. Practical nursing graduates can also become fully qualified to perform sampling work at Fimlab by completing the theoretical courses and the associated work-based learning with demonstration of competency as supplementary studies.
In certain situations, it is also possible to complete the courses on “Sampling and customer service in nursing” as an apprenticeship training. We provide apprenticeship recruitments as open job positions based on regional needs and dates of collaborative training. You can also express your interest in an apprenticeship training in your job application.
