Find out about how much Erasmus+ funding is available to support your teaching or training visit.

Funding for 2022/23 activities

Due to the UK's departure from the EU, the 2022/23 academic year will be the final year in which we can offer Erasmus+ funding to support Go Abroad for Staff. 

We have now committed all remaining Erasmus+ funding for Europe and will be unable to support any new applications for funding unless previous applicants withdraw. 

We have very limited spaces available for non-European staff mobility.  Please contact staffmobility@ed.ac.uk if you would like to be considered for any funding which becomes available.  

Funding for Go Abroad for Staff is currently provided within the framework of the Erasmus+ programme with the support of the European Commission. 

Erasmus+ funding is comprised of a travel grant and a subsistence grant.  These grants may not cover all the costs of travel, accommodation, and subsistence so the amounts outlined below should be taken into consideration when planning your journey.

Actual expenditure will not be taken into consideration so participants are not required to submit an expense claim or to collate receipts of expenditure whilst abroad. 

Grant rates vary according to destination country and duration of the visit, and are determined by the British Council. 

For staff applying for funding for training activities, please note that there is no additional funding available to cover any course or participation fee charged by the host institution.
