The electronic signature of the training contract

Is it possible to sign an internship contract with digital signatures?

Companies and schools have a duty to supervise and monitor the many trainees who alternate training and work experience in companies. These trainees are there to experience the reality of their jobs through contact with professionals. The company, for its part, is responsible for educating and training them while taking advantage of the trainees' help in certain tasks. A win-win system that requires a top-notch organisation and the support of all stakeholders.

The legal framework is strict, and HR teams are keen to respect it. It needs to be put in place in due form before the trainee's arrival, drawn up in three copies and then signed by the company, the school, and the trainee. However, it is not always easy to sign the training agreement before the intern’s first day, given the backwards and forwards between the company and the school, as well as the possibility that the future trainee lives a little far from the company..
