"From-To" section

In this section you will specify the travel details, such as the sending and receiving organisations, the distance band and the means of transport.

Sending and Receiving organisation

If the sending organisation is from a Third country not associated with the programme then the receiving organisation must be from the country of the National Agency or vice versa. See here the list of eligible countries.

A sending/receiving organisation must have an OID, except in the case of:

  • Staff mobility for teaching where the mobility activity is flagged as Invited staff from enterprise
    • If the Sending organisation is an organisation without an OID, the receiving organisation must be a HEI
  • Staff mobility for training where the mobility activity is flagged as Invited staff from enterprise
    • If the Sending organisation is a HEI, the Receiving organisation can be an non-OID organisation
    • In outgoing mobility activities, the non-OID Receiving organisation cannot be from a Partner Country
  • Student mobility for traineeships
    • If the Sending organisation is a HEI, the Receiving organisation can be an non-OID organisation, for incoming and outgoing mobility activities

Select the Sending (1) and Receiving (2) organisation in the From-To section, using the available Select buttons. If an organisation is not available for selection, check that it is added in your project by accessing the Organisations in your project. The Erasmus Charter for Higher Education (ECHE) is displayed once an organisation is selected for organisations in EU Member States or third countries associated to the Programme.

If organisations were selected that do not fulfil any of the above rules, an error message displays below the respective fields. Such errors must be corrected. 

Info
titleInformation

In the case of a mobility activity linked to a Blended intensive programme, the information for the Receiving organisation will be pre-filled with the organisation information from the related Blended intensive programme and read-only. The Select button is not active for the Receiving organisation if the mobility activity is flagged as Blended intensive programme. See below for details.  

If the activity was flagged as Blended mobility activity , you must also provide the required information regarding the virtual component in the fields Virtual component description (3) and Virtual component timing (4). In the case of a participation in a blended intensive programme, the content for this field is taken from the field of the same name of the linked blended intensive programme.

In this section you will specify the mobility activity duration details. 

  1. Check and update the Start and End dates of the mobility activity. 
    • For mobility activities flagged as Blended mobility activity, you must also provide the End date virtual component.
  2. The Duration calculated (days) is calculated automatically and displayed. If the duration limits are not met, a warning message is displayed. The Duration Calculated (days) cannot be manually changed, except in cases of Force majeure.
  3. If there is a break in the mobility activity, fill in the Interruption duration (days) with the number of days of interruption. This duration is subtracted from the total duration of the mobility activity. The interruption duration cannot exceed the total calculated duration in days.
  4. The Duration of mobility activity period (days) indicates the duration in days of the mobility activity after having removed any interruption days. The days are calculated automatically. 
  5. The Funded travel days (max. 2 in the case of unsustainable travel means, max. 6 for sustainable travel means) you specified in the Travel Grant part of the form are also added to the funded duration and are taken into account for the total duration of the mobility activity.
  6. If part of the mobility activity duration is not funded via the Erasmus+ programme, specify the Non-funded duration (days). These days will be subtracted from the total duration.
  7. The Funded duration (days) is automatically calculated based on the information provided in the previous fields.
    • The field Number of days in virtual mobility is only displayed for mobility activities flagged as Blended mobility activity.
Note

For mobility activities flagged as Long-term mobility activities, the fields Funded long-term duration (full months) (8) and Funded long-term duration (extra days) (9) are displayed.

Funded long-term duration (full months) is calculated based on the Funded Duration (days). The Funded long-term duration (extra days) is calculated as the remainder of the previous calculated duration in full 30 day months based on the Funded Duration (days).

Important: In mobility activities, a month is always considered to have 30 days.

Blended intensive programme

Blended intensive programmes are short, intensive programmes that use innovative ways of learning, teaching and training for students and staff including the use of online cooperation. They are developed and implemented by at least three higher education institutions (HEIs) coming from at least three EU Member States and third countries associated to the Programme (called a blended intensive programme partnership) in KA131-HED - Mobility of higher education students and staff projects.

In KA171-HED projects you have the option to link a mobility activity to a Blended intensive programme conducted under KA131-HED. The option to link an mobility activity to a Blended intensive programme is available for: 

  • Student mobility for studies,
  • Staff mobility for teaching, and
  • Staff mobility for training

if the mobility activity was flagged as Blended intensive programme.
