5 How Erasmus Plus would make a difference More opportunities for higher education and vocational students to study and train abroad to improve their skills and job prospects. More opportunities for teachers, trainers and youth workers to study and train in another country. More opportunities for young people to learn through youth exchanges, volunteering and participation in democratic life. More opportunities for education and training institutions to exchange good practice. Increased cooperation between educational institutions, businesses or regional authorities and other bodies such as youth organisations. Launch of new Knowledge Alliances between higher education institutions and businesses. Expanding the etwinning initiative that connects schools via the internet. Better cooperation in education policy, with an emphasis on practical outcomes such as the Europass CV, which is used by more than 10 million Europeans. A new loan guarantee scheme making it easier for students at Masters level to finance their studies in another country. More support for higher education in other parts of the world, particularly in neighbourhood countries.

6 How Erasmus Plus would make a difference Helps young people gain more and better skills by studying & training abroad. Enhances teaching quality in the EU and beyond. Supports Member States and partner countries in modernizing their education and vocational training systems. Promotes youth participation in society. Supports teaching and research on European integration. Supports European grass-roots sport (mass sport).

7 How Erasmus Plus would make a difference Erasmus Plus contributes to Europe 2020, the EU s reform strategy for jobs and growth. Erasmus Plus builds on the experience with the Lifelong Learning Programme, international cooperation programmes and Youth in Action. Erasmus Plus will be simpler, more efficient and easier to use than existing schemes.

8 Erasmus Plus context: Europe 2020 strategy for jobs and growth Ensure that 40% of the population (30-34 years) has a degree Higher Education. Reduce the dropout rate below 10%. Ensure that 15% of adults (25-64 years) participating in programs learning throughout life. Reduce to a percentage lower than 15% the number of young people from fifteen years with low performance in reading, mathematics and science Ensure that at least 95% of children aged between four years and the mandatory school age participate in childhood education. Promoting the learning mobility: 20% in Tertiary Education and 6% in initial VET.

9 What will Erasmus Plus support Learning opportunities for individuals, both within the EU and beyond, including: study and training, traineeships, teaching and professional development and non-formal youth activities such as volunteering. Erasmus for All would provide opportunities for learning abroad for up to 5 million people across all education and training sectors. Europeans would have the option to study, train or teach at higher education institutions anywhere in the world, and non-european students and staff would have more opportunities to study, teach and learn in Europe. Extending the programme beyond the EU's borders will increase the attractiveness of European higher education and at the same time support the development of higher education elsewhere in the world. Institutional cooperation between educational institutions, youth organisations, businesses, local and regional authorities and NGOs, to encourage the development and implementation of innovative practices in education, training and youth activities, and to promote employability, creativity and entrepreneurship. Support for policy reform in Member States and cooperation with non-eu countries, with a focus on strengthening the evidence-base for policy making and exchange of good practices. Support will include the implementation of EU transparency tools, cross-country studies and support for specific policy agendas such as the Bologna (higher education) and Copenhagen (vocational education and training) processes.

10 What are the new elements of Erasmus Plus A loan guarantee scheme to help Master's degree students to finance their studies abroad and to acquire the skills needed for knowledge intensive jobs. The creation of 400 'knowledge alliances' and 'sector skills alliances'. Knowledge alliances are large-scale partnerships between higher education institutions and businesses to promote creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship by offering new learning opportunities and qualifications. Sector skills alliances are partnerships between education and training providers and businesses to promote employability by forming new sectorspecific curricula and innovative forms of vocational teaching and training.

11 Who will be the main beneficiaries? Erasmus Plus is open to all learners and trainers, through any public or private body active in education, training, youth and sport. It will support formal and non-formal learning experiences and activities across all sectors.

12 Why has the Commission decided to stop using existing names of mobility programmes such as Leonardo da Vinci, Comenius and Grundtvig Erasmus is a name which is widely recognized by the public and strongly associated with learning abroad and European cooperation. In setting up an integrated single programme, it makes sense to avoid multiple names and to capitalize on the popularity and awareness of the Erasmus brand.

13 Which countries will be able to participate in Erasmus Plus? Erasmus Plus will be open to all EU Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland, EU candidate countries benefiting from a pre-accession strategy and other countries in the Western Balkans. In addition, non-eu, mostly neighborhood countries, will be able to benefit from actions aimed at promoting study and training opportunities abroad, as well as youth activities.

14 Key actions Erasmus Plus 1. Learning mobility of individuals: Mobility will represent a significant share of the increased overall budget. This increase, together with a focus on the quality of mobility as well as a concentration of priorities and efforts, should increase the critical mass and impact beyond the individuals and institutions involved. 2. Cooperation for innovation and good practices: There will be a stronger focus on strengthening innovative partnerships between educational institutions and business. For higher education, the emphasis will be on capacity building, concentrating on neighborhood countries as well as strategic partnerships with developed and emerging economies. 3. Support for policy reform: Policy reform will be targeted at: strengthening the tools and impact of the open methods of coordination in education, training and youth; implementing the Europe 2020 strategy and promoting the policy dialogue with third countries and international organisations.
