Erasmus+ Staff Mobilities – Incoming

Prague University of Economics and Business (VSE) welcomes every year incoming staff for both Erasmus+ teaching and training mobility. You should contact the international office of your higher education institution to find out if these opportunities are available to you as well as how you can apply for a grant.

 

Staff mobility for Teaching (STA)

  • Minimum length of staff teaching:  2 consecutive working days
  • Maximum length of staff teaching: 2 months

Academic staff can carry out mobility by teaching minimum 8 course hours weekly (or for any shorter stay). The recommended length of teaching mobility at VSE is 5 days.

If you are interested in an Erasmus+ teaching staff mobility you need to complete the following steps:

  1. Make sure your university has signed an Erasmus+ Inter-institutional Agreement with VSE in the area teaching mobility. Contact your international office in order to get more information about the exchange program (required Erasmus+ documents, funding, etc.),
  2. Identify the VSE department within one of the faculties with which you would like to arrange the mobility,
  3. Contact the department to find out whether there is a possibility of accepting the mobility or not. It is recommended to send your CV and submit a short information about your areas of interest and course proposal as well as possible dates of our arrival at VSE.
