Preface
Erasmus+ has already taken its first steps, bringing together a wide range of European support for education, training, youth and sports under one single programme. The new programme builds on the legacy of Erasmus by offering opportunities for a further four million students, apprentices, volunteers, teachers, education and training staff and youth workers to develop their competences. More than 2 million higher education students will be able to study or gain work experience abroad, both within and beyond Europe.
This report looks at the ongoing Erasmus story during the academic year 2012-13, an exceptional year marked by a key milestone: the three millionth student went abroad with Erasmus this year, and the number of mobile academic and administrative staff broke the 350 000 barrier. Erasmus was part of the EU’s Lifelong Learning Programme, with a budget of € 3.1 billion for the period 2007-13. During the academic year 2012-13, 33 countries took part in the Programme: the 27 EU Member States, Croatia, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey.
Erasmus has thus promoted the internationalisation of the European Higher Education system, contributed to its modernisation, and paved the way for the Bologna Process. It now supports the Bologna goal that by 2020 at least 20 % of all graduates from the European Higher Education Area should have spent a period of time studying or training abroad.
