For graduate traineeships, only the first two months of the mobility are funded. Applicants for the graduate traineeship must apply during the final year of studies. The traineeship can be implemented at partner university, or the student-graduate can arrange it individually in an institution located in an Erasmus+ participating country. An interinstitutional agreement is not required for implementation of the traineeship.
- SHORT-TERM BLENDED MOBILITY – study or traineeship
A short-term blended mobility consists of a short-term physical mobility (study or traineeship) of students abroad with a duration from 5 to 30 days and of a mandatory virtual element. The financial grant is provided up to the amount covering 5 days of physical mobility and 2 days of travel. This opportunity should be taken up in particular by those students who cannot go on a long-term physical mobility, for example, due to their study field or because they have fewer opportunities for participation.
- BLENDED INTENSIVE PROGRAMME (BIP)
BIP consists of a mandatory virtual element and physical mobility, which can last from 5 to 30 days. The length of the mobility is set by the BIP organiser. UPJŠ must have an interinstitutional agreement with the BIP organiser for the specific BIP. The full length of physical mobility is funded, including travel days.
