Being an ELSA member, you are very likely to be acquainted with the vision, purpose and means of this association. To reflect upon that, one of the means of ELSA is to assist law students and young lawyers to be internationally minded and profession-ally skilled. There is a vastness of ways of achieving this, and ELSA surely explores and uses them all. However, one of the ways of bridging the knowledge gained at your university library with the real work is most certainly the Student Trainee Exchange Programme.
STEP relocates dry legal theory from its’ paral-lel universe with practice and combines them by unifying them and making way for solutions to the daily international legal challenges one faces in their career. But that is not all there is. STEP shapes practice and legal education into one and then ships it off outside the red border on your geographical map, taking the experience to a whole new level.
Existing for almost three decades, this pro-gramme has grown to be a trusted and reliable system of exchange. This is due to the fact that over 200 law students, so called STEP officers, drive this programme into its success, expand-
ing it and shaping it towards the needs of ELSA members. But this does not only mean obtaining traineeships. This presumes a particular segment of STEP we are very proud of: Reception. This, as well, is organised by STEP officers through-out Europe, making sure your stay in their coun-tries is comfortable and friendly and that you are fully integrated in the society. With these words, I would like to thank all hardworking STEP offic-ers who have made this Newsletter possible.
With STEP, it is not only about the thrill of being a trainee. It is about shifting focus from nation-al to international, augmenting your legal skills, challenging your command of languages, and lastly, making friends and creating your own net-work of contacts. This Newsletter is packed with exciting opportunities for exploring legal markets, cultures and living diversity in its true form.
Enjoy your browsing and apply!

The Republic of Austria is situated in Central Europe and is traversed of the Alps which are the reason that Austria is one of the best places for skiing and if there is summer we enjoy the beautiful landscape with wonderful lakes.

The origins of modern-day Austria date back to the time of the Habsburg dynasty and during the 17th and 18th centuries, Austria became one of the great powers of Europe. This history influenced our cities like the capital Vienna, Graz, Salzburg and many more,and made them real architectural treasures in which many important people grew up. For example Sigmund Freud, Arnold Schwarzeneg-ger and W.A. Mozart.

Originating in its rich historical flux, the Spanish culture has played an important role throughout time. Spain is, above all, a mosaic of cultures. Heterogeneous, old and modern. Refined and popular. Holy and secular. Plural and diverse. The variety of its cultures attracts. The historic heritage dazzles. The vital power of its people fascinates.
Spain covers an area of 505,955 square kilo-metres. Castilian/Spanish is the nation’s official language, but there are also officially-recognised languages in Catalonia, Galicia, the Basque Country, Valencia and the Balearic Islands.
