ERASMUS+
Erasmus+ is a funding programme provided by the EU to offer teachers, staff and students access to mobility across the EU. This comes in the form of a grant that partly covers the cost of their stay abroad. Join us in Cork on one of our Erasmus+ applicable programmes for an experience second to none.
Cork English College offers teacher training & staff mobility courses in Ireland to Erasmus+ participants. Participants will gain new perspectives on teaching practices and approaches, improve their language skills, and ultimately have a new and exciting experience here in Ireland.
One of the main benefits our students have found from the Erasmus+ training courses in Ireland with CEC is being able to adapt teaching methods & professional practices from the most current practices into their own careers, which helps them to develop a more dynamic approach to their own roles & classrooms. Embarking on an Erasmus+ adventure in Cork City is a transformative journey that seamlessly blends academic & professional growth with cultural enrichment.
Our Erasmus+ programmes are open to all with an interest in the exciting opportunities of staff mobility.
