EU FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT TIPS

The Erasmus+ VET Mobility Charter is intended to encourage organisations that have track records of proven quality in organising VET mobility for learners and staff to further develop their European internationalisation strategies. European
internationalisation means supporting learning in another Erasmus+ Programme country by embedding high quality mobility activities into curricula, as well as developing international approaches throughout the sending organisation, for example by networking with bodies in other countries, promoting the learning of foreign languages and looking beyond national VET approaches. The internationalisation process should result in improved capacity of sending organisations to organise mobility for learners and staff, whilst at the same time rewarding, promoting and further developing the quality of learning mobility.

Eligible participants

A participating organisation can be:
- any public or private organisation (or its subsidiary/branch) active in the field of vocational education and training (referred to as a VET provider); or
- any public or private organisation active in the labour market (referred to as a company)

Deadline: 17/05/2018
