Teaching Staff Training

There are two options open to Academic (Teaching) staff:

The purpose is to allow the beneficiaries to learn by transfer of knowledge or expertise and to acquire practical skills. The activities can include; language training, seminars, workshops, courses and conferences. Formal periods of practical training, short secondments should account for the majority of the activities.


2. Mobility of teaching staff in a higher education institution going to a partner institution for the purpose of receiving training. As at 1 above the activities may include language training, seminars workshops, courses and conferences. These activities should not account for the majority of the training activities carried out.
