Staff mobility for training - Outgoing

Introduction

Erasmus+ supports training periods for staff working in higher education institutions, both in teaching and non-teaching capacities.

Training abroad is a chance to develop personally, professionally and academically, gain new transferable skills, develop cultural awareness and open-mindedness, gain knowledge in new subjects or in teaching methods, broaden your horizons – physically and mentally, and improve and gain language skills.

Eligibility

To participate in Erasmus+ training, you must be an employee of the University of Nova Gorica (UNG).

For mobility to a Partner Country, the receiving institution and UNG must have an Inter-institutional Agreement.

To be eligible for Erasmus+ mobility, you must apply for the UNG call and be selected.

A training period between two Programme countries must last a minimum of 2 days and a maximum of 14 days.
A training period between Programme and Partner countries must last a minimum of 5 days and a maximum of 14 days.
In both cases, travel time is excluded.

Training activities abroad may include job shadowing, observation periods, professional development courses, competence-building events, or workshops, but not conferences.

Get Informed

Attend Erasmus+ sessions orginized by International Office during the academic year to learn about the opportunities offered by the Erasmus+ programme. You can also request for an individual meeting with Erasmus coordinator.

Check the list of Erasmus+ Inter-institutional Agreements between the UNG and the institutions from Programme Countries and the list of Erasmus+ Inter-institutional Agreements between the UNG and the institutions from Partner Countries.
