Erasmus+ Placements

This action enables students at higher education institutions to spend a

placement period between 2 months and 12 months in an enterprise or
organization in another participating
country.
The objectives of student mobility for placements are:
To help students to adapt to the requirements of the EU-wide labor market;
To enable students to develop specific skill including language skills and to
improve understanding of the economic and social culture of the country
concerned in the context of acquiring work experience;
To promote cooperation between Higher Education Institutions and
enterprises;
To contribute to the development of a pool of well-qualified, open-minded
and internationally experienced young people as future professionals.
Student 'placement' is an alternative term to the widely used term
'traineeship' or 'internship'.
Host organizations for student placements may be enterprises, training
centers, research centers and other organizations.
The following types of organizations are not eligible as host organizations:
EU institutions and other EU bodies including specialized agencies
(their
exhaustive
list
is
available
on
the
website
ec.europa.eu/institutions/index_en.htm);
organizations managing EU programs (in order to avoid a possible
conflict of interests and/or double funding);
national diplomatic representations (embassy and consulate) of the
home country of the student.
Erasmus+ students are selected by their home Higher Education Institutions
in a fair and transparent way.
Prior to their departure, students sign a Learning Agreement For
Traineeships, a document that includes all the information about the
Erasmus+ Placements mobility.
