Solicitud de Acreditación Erasmus 2020

Launched in 2014, the Erasmus+ Programme has created numerous opportunities for mobility and cooperation in education, training, youth, and sport. It has provided valuable skills and experience to participants, and helped to modernise education, training, and youth work across Europe.

The new Programme (2021-2027) aims to be even more inclusive, accessible, and sustainable. Important goals include supporting the digital transition in European education and helping to build the European Education Area.

To achieve these objectives, the new Programme has been designed to be easier than ever for organisations to access. Erasmus accreditation is crucial for this objective.

Erasmus accreditation is a new way to access mobility activities under the new Programme.

Erasmus accreditation gives organisations access to learning mobility opportunities under the Programme’s Key Action 1. Key Action 1 supports organisations in delivering professional and personal development opportunities for learners, teachers, trainers, and other education staff.

Organisations only need to be accredited once to receive funding for Key Action 1 mobility activities during seven years of the Programme.

To be accredited, organisations need to create a plan to implement high-quality mobility activities and use them to improve their education and training offer. Once accredited, organisations can take advantage of the following benefits:

STABLE FUNDING: Your organisation can rely on the Programme to support you with funds for new mobility activities every year.

MAKING YOUR OWN STRATEGY: Erasmus accreditation lets you define your own goals and gives you the freedom to choose the speed at which you want to move. As you progress, you can also update your plan to keep it relevant.

OPPORTUNITY TO GROW AND EXPLORE: You can try new types of activities or collaborations with new partner organisations – without having to write a new application every time.

INVESTING INTO THE FUTURE Stable access to funding means you can focus on long-term goals. Mobility activities can be used to gradually raise the quality of teaching and learning in your organisation to new levels.

HOW DO I RECEIVE FUNDING? If your application is successful, you will gain access to the special Key Action 1 funding fast track. You can then request funding every year – simply by submitting a funding request to your National Agency. The good news is that a funding request is quite different from a regular application. You only need to provide basic information such as participant numbers and the type of activities, to estimate the funds you need. The National Agency distributes the available funds among accredited organisations each year. Details of the process for budget requests and allocations are described at the National Agency’s website and in the Programme Guide, which is published every year.

To define the objectives of the Erasmus Plan, schools must debate and select them by consensus of the educational community. In our school the selected objectives are the following six:

Improve foreign language proficiency of teachers and students.

Improve among students acquisition of key competences, including transversal ones.

Open our school to regular collaboration with other European schools.

Support collective effort to face climate crisis and build a sustainable future.

Promote inclusion, non-discrimination, respect for diversity and intercultural cooperation.

Promote values of European Union and promote knowledge and use of our cultural heritage.
