It supports participation in a variety of opportunities to broaden knowledge and skills including structured study, and training events in a relevant organisation active in the field of school organisation, such as Future Learning. Is there funding for second level schools? All schools that are recognised in their country are supported under this programme and can apply for funding under the heading of mobility for school staff. What does mobility mean? Mobility means travelling to avail of professional development opportunities in other programme countries. Can I apply for Erasmus+ as an individual? Erasmus+ funding is institution-led. If you would like to know how to get involved in Erasmus+ speak to your school or college. What is FL’s involvement? Future learning is the course provider and will be your receiving organisation in Ireland for the purpose of the application and will be organising the training event. Who is eligible to apply for funding? Organisations across all sectors actively involved in delivering formal and non-formal education, training and youth work are able to apply for funding for their staff and learners and are accepted as such by their national agencies. Who do I apply to? You apply to the National Agency who manage your application and project.

Other countries can participate in the programme on a limited basis and may participate in certain actions or according to specific conditions. What is the deadline for funding applications? The deadline for applications for school staff mobility is at the beginning of February. When will I find out if we got the funding? Four months after the submission deadline the school will be notified of the decision and get a date for the signing of the grant agreement. When would we receive the funding? The school will receive 80% of the funding awarded in advance and 20% of the funding within 60 days of submitting the final report on completion of the project to the National Agency. How can FL help with this process? We are available to help with any questions you may have during the process and will help in any way we can with the application.
