Erasmus+ is the European Commission’s Programme for education, training, youth and sport for the period 2014 ‐ 2020, succeeding the previous Lifelong Learning Programme (2007 – 2014).

As an integrated programme, Erasmus+ offers more opportunities for mobility of learners and staff and cooperation across the education, training and youth sectors and is easier to access than its predecessors, with simplified funding rules and a structure which aims to streamline the administration of the programme.
