Universities throughout the EU and EEA. We have strong partnerships with many universities already and there may well be examples of good practice where a visit would be valuable.
This depends on matching up the dates with the host institution and your own workload.
The scheme will continue for at least 2 more years beyond March 2019 provided that a deal is agreed.
For 2018-19, we still have 20 places remaining.
The Erasmus National Agency will send an online agreement and a feed back form which must be completed. For UW the report and dissemination plan has to be identified when the bid is submitted. Examples could include reporting back to team meetings, inviting colleagues to a lunchtime briefing session, making a presentation to a wider audience, use of video and social media is encouraged.
Colleagues who have engaged have benefited from observing practice elsewhere and been able to make changes to processes back in their home institution. They have developed strong networks with their hosts and continue to share information.
