Funding, Application & Erasmus+ Basics

Your school submits an Erasmus+ KA1 project to its National Agency. Once approved, you choose your course and dates and complete our preregistration form. See our Application Steps page for the full process.

Courses are funded by the European Union through the Erasmus+ programme, via your school's National Agency, once your school's KA1 project is approved.

Coverage depends on the amount approved by your National Agency — an Erasmus+ grant usually covers most or all travel and accommodation costs. Contact your National Agency to confirm your specific allocation.

Erasmus+ KA1 mobility funding is granted to schools, not individuals directly. However, you're welcome to join our courses and pay independently — they're also suitable for anyone pursuing lifelong learning or professional development funded another way.

Deadlines are set annually in the Erasmus+ Programme Guide, typically in spring, for projects starting the same or following academic year. Check your National Agency's site for the current cycle's exact date.

OID number: E10102402. PIC number: 932905455.

Yes — as of the 2026/27 Erasmus+ Programme Guide, ferry travel is recognised as green travel when combined with other low-emission transport, such as train or bus, for the rest of the journey. A ferry crossing on its own doesn't qualify, but a route like train + ferry + train does. Green travel can unlock extra funding and up to 6 additional travel days — worth confirming the exact conditions with your National Agency.

KA1 funds individual staff mobility — like our teacher training courses — while KA2 funds strategic partnerships between institutions on longer joint projects. See our KA2 Projects page for examples.

An Erasmus+ course involves physical mobility to another country, EU funding, formal recognition (certificate, Europass), and in-person networking with teachers from other countries — benefits an online seminar can't replicate.

Look for verified ESEP status, a physical registered venue, permanent (not only freelance) trainers, and visible participant reviews.

About the Courses

It's a structured professional development programme for teachers, head teachers, and other education staff, funded through Erasmus+ KA1 mobility, focused on practical skills, modern teaching methods, and cross-border networking.

Most courses are available in 5-day, 6-day, or 7-day formats — you choose your preferred length in the preregistration form.

Yes, all courses are delivered in English by experienced trainers used to working with international, multilingual groups.

All our activities and lessons take place either in the morning or in the afternoon , depending on classroom and trainer availability.

When it comes to the schedule, participants can expect to receive final version approximately 10-14 days before start of the course, as is the standard with course providers.

Our courses welcome a wide range of school staff, not just classroom teachers: head teachers, administrative staff, librarians, and other school personnel are all welcome. They're also a great fit for adult education teachers and trainers — our courses are eligible for Lifelong Learning and Professional Development funding, and we're listed on EPALE (the Electronic Platform for Adult Learning in Europe).

Yes — tailor-made courses are available for groups of 6 participants or more. Together we agree on the number of hours, number of days, topic, and destination, so the course fits your school's exact needs. Contact our team at info@erasmuscoursescroatia.com to discuss your requirements.

We welcome more than 2,000 participants a year, from every EU country eligible for Erasmus+, as well as their overseas territories — including Aruba, Martinique, French Guiana, the Dutch Caribbean, the Azores, Tenerife, and Réunion Island, among others. We've built especially strong, lasting ties with local teachers on Réunion Island and Aruba over the years: participants from both join us in Croatia in large numbers, and we also travel there ourselves to run courses, working closely with local schools and teachers — a genuine two-way partnership we're really proud of.

Fees, Payment & Changes

Course and social programme fees are listed on our Fees page.

Cancellation is free of charge up to 4 weeks before the course starts. After that date, the fee is €160 for the course and €70 for the optional Organisation Fee (Social Programme). No refund is issued for a no-show. Full payment is due no later than 3 weeks before the course starts.

Yes — not a problem at all. Just contact our team at info@erasmuscoursescroatia.com and we'll arrange it together.

Yes — for a group of 8 participants from the same school, you pay for 7 course fees and get the 8th free. Groups of 12 or more also receive a free airport transfer in Split.

The minimum is 3. Since we run a large number of courses and participants at the same time, a solution always exists — if a specific course doesn't reach the minimum, we offer another course in the same time slot, or the option to switch to the same course in a different time slot.

Payment is made by bank transfer. Once registered, you'll receive an invoice with all the payment details. In the registration form, please specify whether the invoice should be issued to your school or to you personally, along with all other billing details.

Quality, Accreditation & Reviews

Yes — Erasmus Courses Croatia is a registered ustanova for adult education, meets all required minimum technical standards (MTO) for classroom space, and is listed on ESEP (the European School Education Platform), the EU's official directory of vetted course providers.

Our courses are led by experienced, mostly permanent trainers with decades of combined teaching and facilitation experience — see Invited Experts for guest specialists featured in select courses.

Yes — testimonials from teachers across Europe are featured on our About Us page, and we're also listed on TripAdvisor and Google Reviews.

Locations & Venues

We run courses primarily in Split and Dubrovnik, Croatia, plus additional locations including Zagreb, Zadar, and several destinations abroad — see our full Other Destinations page.

Split combines 1,700 years of Mediterranean history and UNESCO heritage with a practical, walkable city and reliable training infrastructure — a genuine break from routine alongside real professional development.

Across three locations, all within a few hundred metres of each other: our headquarters at Teslina 16a, the Secondary Technical Traffic School (Srednja tehnička prometna škola) at Teslina 4, and the Spinit Incubator (a University of Split facility) on Matoševa ulica.

It's a genuine, everyday Croatian secondary school in session — not an isolated hotel conference room. Participants meet local teachers, chat with the headmaster, and see a real classroom environment in action.

As much as possible — parks, the beach, and similar spots are a regular part of the course, and a bit of rain won't stop us either. The one real exception is extreme summer heat (37°C / 99°F and above), when sessions move indoors to our air-conditioned classrooms for participants' comfort and health. In summer, we recommend packing a swimsuit for a refreshing dip during breaks, plus a water bottle, hat, and sunscreen.

Both are within easy reach — about a 10 to 15-minute leisurely walk from our venue.

Our Dubrovnik courses are held at the CAAS building (University of Zagreb), which combines everything in one place: accommodation rooms, a restaurant, and classrooms under one roof, about a 10-minute walk from the historic centre and from the school used for job shadowing.

Yes, through our partnerships with local schools — see our Job-Shadowing page. Our Split venue sits in a neighbourhood with many schools nearby, so these visits mostly happen within walking distance.

Practical Logistics

Booking.com and Airbnb are good sources for hotels and private accommodation near our Split venue. We also work with a few partner hotels offering corporate rates when you mention Erasmus Courses Croatia, and can recommend private apartments nearby where many past participants have stayed multiple times with great experiences — just contact our team.

Free airport transfer (in Split) is included for groups of 12 or more participants. For smaller groups or individual needs, we work with a trusted local taxi company we've used for years without issue — punctual, reliable, English-speaking drivers, with cars as well as vans for larger trips. This is especially reassuring for participants travelling alone, for example an early morning airport run or heading back late in the evening. Available on request for transfers, day trips, or any other arrangements during your free time.

Participants' personal data is handled in line with GDPR requirements — full details are available in our Privacy Policy.

After the Course

Typically your certificate of attendance, travel documentation for reimbursement, and a short report on the skills gained and how you'll apply them — your school's Erasmus+ coordinator will guide you through this.

The report is written through the Mobility Tool+ platform of the European Commission and includes a description of the activity, competences gained, and how they'll be applied in teaching — your school's Erasmus+ coordinator usually guides you through this process.

In most EU countries, Erasmus+ courses count as formal professional development, though exact recognition rules vary by country — check with your national education authority.
