Key Action 1: Learning Mobility of Individuals is all about providing opportunities for individuals to improve their skills, enhance their employability and gain cultural awareness.
Under Key Action 1
organisations can apply for funding to run mobility projects. These projects
enable organisations to offer structured study, work experience, job shadowing,
training and teaching opportunities to staff and learners.

experience of life, study and work with the aim of increasing the opportunities
available to them in the future.
