*Update 19.02.2025: ‘By default, all [internal] competitions will be cross-category.’ (Stay tuned: A new approach for internal competitions [1]) This is excellent news and should now put the Commission on an even footing with the Parliament and other EU institutions [2]. We hope that this inclusion is genuine and that the competitions are not otherwise skewed [3] to reduce participation. Participation in these competitions can be done in parallel to the certification: use all your options!*
We invite you to our online lunchtime meeting on everything connected to the AST function group, please feel free to add to this list:
- past, present and future
- certification [4] (deadline to apply is Friday 07.10.2022)
- type of post of person: Assistant in transition (sysperII>career history>career summary)
Please check our AST frequently asked questions (FAQ) [5] and if you don’t find your question there, send it to us [6] and we’ll try to answer it and add it to the FAQ!
