How Can My School Organise an Erasmus+ VET Mobility With a Partner in Lisbon?

Putting everything together — the practical starting point for a school ready to move forward.

Where to Start

It Begins With a Conversation, Not a Contract

Organising an Erasmus+ VET mobility with a Lisbon partner starts simply: a conversation describing your students' fields of study, roughly how many participants, and your intended timing. A genuine partner can tell you quickly whether a realistic programme is possible, before either side commits to anything formal.

Why Starting the Conversation Early Helps

Even Before an Application Is Approved

Schools don't need a confirmed grant before reaching out to a potential partner — in fact, having a concrete placement plan in hand tends to strengthen an Erasmus+ KA1 application. Starting the conversation early gives both sides time to build a programme properly, rather than compressing everything into the weeks before departure.

Working With DNA Europe

One Local Partner for Schools in Romania, Italy and Poland

DNA Europe has spent ten years organising Erasmus+ KA1 VET mobility in Lisbon for partner schools across Romania, Italy and Poland, coordinating placements, accommodation, transfers, monitoring and documentation as one programme. If your school is planning a mobility to Lisbon — whether it's your first or your fifteenth — the next step is a conversation about your students' fields of study and timing.
