ADEK International, the Association of former trainees of the European Union, was formed in 1966 in order to create a network of solidarity among former stagiaires of all institutions of the European Communities (European Union).

The Association's raison d'être is to maintain a network of solidarity between members; to keep a permanent dialogue between our members and the European Institutions, and to promote the central values that underpin the European integration project.

ADEK International currently has thousands of members from all over the world; each with varied careers, hobbies, interests and views, and all bonded by their different yet shared experiences of an institutional traineeship.

ADEK International keeps in contact with its members through its publications, such as the monthly editions of its Newsletter, through a series of varied activities and events, and through regular electronic and postal communication. New methods of communicating to our members are also under development, not least our plans for the new ADEK International dynamic website!

The ADEK Secretariat is in charge of the implementation of ADEK International's work programme and remains a physical link between members, the ADEK International Executive Board and current stagiaires. The office is permanently staffed by two European Commission stagiaires, presently James Hughes and Loren Lesko. 

The ADEK International Executive Board remains at the heart of the Association, co-ordinating current activities, and the direction of your network. It consists of a small group of ADEK members, elected to serve your interests. 

Following a recent election of a new Executive Board, the Board consists of the following officers!
