Welcome



Activity type refers to a specific type or category of activity within a project. Each activity type has its own characteristics, goals, and requirements, and may involve different levels of coordination, planning, and execution.  

When adding or updating project items such as activities, mobility activities, or participations in a project in Beneficiary module, you may need to select a specific activity type. The available options for an activity type vary, depending on the action type and/or call year of the project.

Examples of activity types include long-term learning mobility of vocational education and training (VET) learners, long-term learning mobility of pupils, or youth exchanges.
