Erasmus+ KA1: Application steps towards Erasmus+ grant
Erasmus+ KA1 staff mobility
Erasmus+ KA1 staff mobility is an excellent opportunity for teachers, headmasters, career consultants, trainers and other professionals to participate in international courses in different European countries. Participants may get the funding from EU Erasmus+ programme, which (at least for our training courses) covers ALL of the necessary costs such as traveling, accommodation and tuition fee.
How can my organisation apply for EU grant?
If you don’t have experience with EU proposals, applying for Erasmus grant can be a bit confusing. Here’s what you have to do:
Step 1: in order to apply for Erasmus+ grant you will need a PIC code and Organisation ID for your organisation. Register in Organisation Registration system for Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps to get it for your organisation. When filling in the Erasmus+ mobility application you will also need our PIC code, which is 904082778 and Organisation ID, which is E10186256.
Step 2: find an interesting course for you from the selection of our courses. Fill in the pre-registration form to one of our courses you’ll prebook the place at us.
Step 3: find the online application form from your National agency website and prepare a proposal under the Key Action 1 (KA1), Learning Mobility of Individuals. Note that there is just one deadline each year so don’t miss it! If your organization didn’t apply, you’ll have to wait until next year for grant approval.
Step 4: submit the application to your National agency. All the files are submitted online, so you’ll need to scan documents.
Step 5: keep your fingers crossed and check the web-page of your National agency for results. The results are usually published in late spring/early summer (May, June).
Step 6: when you receive positive feedback from your agency, please let us know so we can confirm your chosen date.
Step 7: after you receive a grant approval notice, you’ll need to sign contract with your National agency. It takes around two months from the grant approval to transfer of grants to your organisation.

When you make up your decision, fill in the pre-registration form. One of our colleagues will reply you shortly. Together we’ll choose the right date for you.
After we receive the fixed number of reservations, we officially confirm the course. As soon as you hear that the course has been confirmed, you can start searching for the plane ticket. Soon after confirmation of the course you’ll receive contact form. With contact form we collect some additional information about you and colleagues that will join you in order to make your mobility as pleasant as possible.

What about accommodation?
