EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOME: You will be able to explain and compare resources available to students considering learning mobility in order to support their search for information and funding
2. Variety of financial resources for mobility
Financial support for students planning to study abroad comes from different sources. The most popular programme in Europe is the Erasmus+ programme and many in the Nordic/Baltic countries also know the regional cooperation programme Nordplus. This course focuses mainly on the opportunities provided by these two programmes.
The Nordic countries have a specific programme called North2North for mobility projects among Denmark, Greenland, the Faroe Islands, Canada, the United States, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Iceland and Russia.
There are also national resources, both from the countries sending students abroad and from the countries receiving them. Please see the next section in this chapter for more details.
The chart below illustrates the variety of funding resources available for learning mobility.
