5 things coming soon from the NA this autumn

School, university, work? Whichever applies to you from the above, September is a month of ‘back to’s’. It’s also the start of our activities to support you applying for Erasmus+ funding in 2015.

As the 2015 Call is due to be published this month; we recently published an editorial on what you can expect. The European Commission publishes a Call for Proposals each year which provides high-level details on programme eligibility, award criteria, budgets and application deadlines so that you can apply for funding for your projects. Here’s a rundown of things you can do to prepare in the meantime:

1. New to Erasmus+?
Check out our briefing sessions in Belfast, Cardiff, Glasgow and London during October and November. These half-day events are for organisations who have not previously applied for Erasmus+ funding and who want to know more. Registration is free but places are on a ‘first come first served’ basis so don’t delay!

2. Do you have mail? Sign up now!
If you don’t do so already, by signing up to the Erasmus+ newsletter you’ll be among the first to know when we launch our online and face-to-face events. As a subscriber we will also send you e-alerts at key stages such as when the Call is published.

3. Raise your hand if you want more detailed Erasmus+ information…
We’ll be running detailed webinars for different parts of the programme in November. We’ll let you know when you can register your place and send you information on how to join the online sessions.

4. Save the date
Our first Erasmus+ Learning Networks event and annual conference will take place in November. Visit the Events section on our website for more information.
