Welcome to the final episode of Talkative Thursdays for this year’s Time to Move Campaign!

This time, we focus on opportunities to learn abroad. 

Learning abroad isn't just studying; it’s a defining moment that changes your story,  because taking part definitely helps you explore your true self. When you hear Erasmus+, you probably think of the famous full-semester study abroad, but actually, it’s much more than that.

Discover opportunities such as short training courses, youth exchanges, grants to travel Europe by rail and other funded programs through Erasmus+ that let you gain specialised academic hard skills plus critical life skills like resilience, adaptability, and a broader global understanding.
