Within the Erasmus+ Key Action 1 – Mobility of Individuals, opportunities are provided for staff of education institutions to undertake a learning and/or professional experience in another country. Training mobility supports the professional development of higher education institution teaching and non-teaching staff in the form of training events abroad (excluding conferences) and job shadowing/observation periods/training at a partner HEI, or at another relevant organisation abroad.
ASU faculty and administrative employees may seek Erasmus+ funding for participation in a training mobility abroad.
