Application deadlines, as well as further information on eligible activities, can be found in the 2016 Call for Proposals document and the 2016 Programme Guide.
This year’s call has seen some minor changes to the previous Erasmus+ programme, including:
- New opportunities in Vocational Education and Training Mobility (including the possibility for organisations to apply for mobility projects with and without a VET Charter);
- More targeted Strategic Partnerships, and a clearer distinction between projects supporting innovation and supporting exchange of best practices;
- A revised format of Sector Skills Alliances: two strands supporting needs identification and design and delivery of VET;
- New opportunities in sport in the form of Small Collaborative Partnerships.
