What is Key Action 1 in the field of Vocational Education and Training?

Erasmus+ offers the possibility to learners, apprentices, teachers and other educational staff to participate in learning mobility activities by applying for short-term or accredited mobility projects. VET providers and their beneficiaries can cooperate with partners abroad and enhance their outreach and dynamics.

Who can take part?
The Programme can benefit individual participants involved in a mobility abroad, while it also contributes to the development of the participating organisations, increases their ability for cross-border cooperation and enhances teaching and learning for all, not only for those participating in a mobility abroad.

See all eligible organisations here.

  • strengthening key competences and skills, in particular language learning and digital skills
  • supporting the development of job specific skills
  • sharing best practices and promoting the use of new and innovative pedagogical methods and technologies, and supporting the professional development of teachers, trainers, mentors and other staff in VET
  • building the capacity of VET providers to carry out high quality mobility projects, and their ability to form quality partnerships while developing their internationalisation strategy
  • making mobility a realistic possibility for any learner in IVET and CVET, and increasing the average duration of mobility for VET learners to increase its quality and impact
  • fostering the quality, transparency and recognition of learning outcomes of mobility periods abroad, especially by using European tools and instruments for this purpose (Memorandum of Understanding and Learning Agreement).
  • promoting values of inclusion and diversity, tolerance, and democratic participation
  • promoting knowledge about shared European heritage and diversity
  • supporting development of professional networks across Europe.

What is Erasmus accreditation?

Erasmus accreditation is a new tool to access mobility activities in the framework of the new Programme that aims at waiving the obligation of the organisations to submit a new application for mobility activities per Call for Proposals, as required by Erasmus+ Programme. Moreover, it enables bodies to remain in the new Programme over several years by organising mobility activities through simplified grant requests for accredited projects (KA121).

How can I be awarded an accreditation?

Organisations must set up a plan to implement high-quality mobility activities that they will utilize in order to enhance the education and training they offer. Applicants can apply as an individual organisation or as a coordinator of a mobility consortium. It is not possible to apply for both types of accreditation in the same field.

Information for individual organisations
Organisations applying for funding for their staff or learners.
Information for consortium coordinators
Accredited mobility consortium coordinators can lead a group of organisations that work together based on a joint plan and organise mobility activities abroad. The members of your consortium are not required to hold an Erasmus accreditation themselves, however they must come from the country of your organisation.

Moreover, organisations who do not wish to submit an application, can join the Erasmus+ Programme by:

  • Joining an existing Erasmus+ mobility consortium led by an accredited consortium coordinator in their country that is accepting new members in the consortium.
  • Hosting participants from another country: any organisation can become a host for learners or staff coming from a partner organisation abroad. Becoming a hosting organisation is a valuable experience and a good way to learn more about the Programme before applying.
  • Through the participation of VET providers in the European online platforms, such as EPALE and eTwinning, featuring also the Community of European VET practitioners | EPALE (europa.eu), a space for VET teachers, trainers, in-company tutors to collaborate and be informed about European initiatives.
