Erasmus+ for traineeship
The counter receives to the public by appointment only
In the field of mobility of individuals, Erasmus+ provides for two sub-programmes, the Erasmus+ study syllabus, to study at a foreign higher education institution, and the Erasmus+ traineeship syllabus, to carry out a traineeship in a company abroad.
Internships are aimed at current students and those close to graduation, and can be carried out up to 12 months after graduation.
With Erasmus+, those who leave for traineeship receive a differentiated EU contribution in relation to the cost of living in the destination country.
It is possible to take advantage of Erasmus for up to twelve months for each cycle of study or (bachelor's, master's, PhD school), regardless of the type of experience (both for study and traineeship) even for those who have already carried out a training experience as part of the Lifelong Learning Program (LLP).
It is possible to apply during the last year of the course and then carry out and finish the traineeship experience abroad within one year of graduation (to be calculated in the total twelve months of the cycle).
All information regarding requirements, documents, deadlines and how to submit the application can be found in the call published on this page.
The Programme provides participants with language courses on the EU Academy online platform. The initial language assessment test is mandatory in the working language, participants will receive instructions for accessing and taking the test on the EU Academy platform before departure.
In addition to the test, a wide range of activities aimed at learning a new language or perfecting a language you already know will be available to be carried out during the mobility.
The strength is that the activities have been designed to best adapt to the specific needs of each user. This means that you will be able to enjoy a tailor-made learning experience at your own pace.
