ERASMUS+ enables higher education teaching staff and people employed in private businesses to go abroad to teach in a higher education institution for up to six weeks. Likewise, any academic and non-academic higher education staff may receive training abroad in an enterprise or another institution.
Mobility Opportunities for Teaching Staff (STA): having teaching staff coming from abroad enables students to benefit from new lectures, different teaching methods and perhaps to experience learning in a foreign language (this is called "internationalization at home"). Teachers can gain different perspectives, establish new contacts and build their academic network. Periods are quite short, averaging about one week.
Mobility Opportunities for Administrative Staff (STT): administrative staff from higher education institutions can go abroad to receive training in a business or at another institution. The stay is an opportunity to stimulate further exchanges and co-operation.
For Teaching Mobility (KA131)
Duration of teaching may range from 2 consecutive days to 2 months, with a mandatory minimum of 8 lecture hours per week. For durations exceeding one week, the minimum teaching hours for an incomplete week should be proportionate to the week's duration. For instance, if the standard requirement is 8 hours per week, it should be at least 16 hours for a two-week activity. If a teaching activity is shorter than 2 consecutive days or fails to meet the minimum hourly requirement, it is considered AS invalid, and the corresponding grant will be asked to return.
For Training Mobility (KA131)
Duration of training mobility can be 2 consecutive days to 2 months. If the mobility stated on the participation certificate is less than 2 days, the mobility will be considered as invalid and the participant is required to return the Erasmus+ grant.
Application will be taken via TURNAPORTAL
Please check the mySU/Announcements and our announcement section for the application period and details.
Grants for Staff Mobility (KA131)
Funding, which is not intended to cover all the costs, will be a contribution towards the costs of travel and additional living expenses for the planned teaching activity abroad. Faculty members can search for additional grants or can get support from the partner institutions through their own arrangements. However, additional grants should not be in contrast with the cases stated in the contract document. SU teaching staff participating in exchange program will continue to receive his/her salary and other benefits provided by SU.
