The program, which becomes 36 years old this course, is framed among the activities promoted by the EDP Foundation in the educational field. It is named after Martín González del Valle, who was president of the energy company between 1987 and 1999, and since then was honorary president of the company and the EDP Foundation until his death in 2015.

The Martín González del Valle scholarships, which result from the agreement with the University of Oviedo, are paid and have a maximum duration of ten months. The training period will start in October, with the integration of each student to the assigned work center.

The internships are developed in all areas of the company, under the supervision of tutors, who train and help the students. Moreover, they take part in innovation and continuous improvement programs, where they share their ideas and experiences with the rest of the students.

Besides of the agreement with the University of Oviedo, the EDP Foundation maintains agreements with other Spanish universities and schools in order to encourage the training of more students in the different installations and work centers that the company owns in other regions.
