Erasmus+ Teacher Academies action

The Erasmus+ Teacher Academies action develops European and international cooperation in teacher education, promotes multilingualism and cultural diversity, develops teacher education in line with the EU’s priorities in education policy and contributes to the achievement of the objectives of the European Education Area.

By investing in cooperation at the European level, the action aims to respond to the challenges faced in teacher education, such as the attractiveness of the field and providing opportunities for professional development.

Projects under the Erasmus+ Teacher Academies action:

• at least three organisations from three different EU countries and third countries associated to the programme
• at least two of them must be providers of initial teacher education and at least one of them a provider of continuing professional development (in-service training) for teachers
• a training school must also be involved
• in addition, a wide variety of different actors linked with teacher education can participate in the projects

The European Commission's Executive Agency EACEA provides guidance to applicants. The Finnish National Agency for Education (EDUFI) provides information on the action in Finland.

Information on the guidance events for applicants organised by EACEA and EDUFI as well as materials are available on the event pages below.
