In 2014 the former Lifelong Learning Programme (LLP) has been replaced by the new European Education Programme Erasmus+. Participants from EU member states, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Macedonia and Turkey can apply for Erasmus+ funding. Erasmus KA1 Mobility grants promote the mobility of individuals. Language courses at TANDEM schools are aimed at European teachers and other experts in the field of further education for adults.

Through Erasmus+ participants can apply for a scholarship for training courses. The grants generally cover travel expenses, course and accommodation costs. Individuals cannot apply directly for grants and should instead contact their university, college or organisation. That means, that the organisation that is involved in adult or school education can apply for an Erasmus KA1 Mobility grant in order to send members of their staff to attend a course in the field of language learning. The application has to be part of a 1 or 2 years strategy project designed by the organisation.

In view of receiving help with the application and a good preparation of the course, contact a specific TANDEM school and make a pre-registration. On request the school also sends you a detailed course programme and their PIC code. The course provider should be registered on the European Commission Authentication Service (ECAS) with a Participant Identification Code (PIC).
