What we do

Three programmes

SOML uses Erasmus+ structurally across three lines — for mobility and for developing education together.

✈️
KA1 · PO-VO

KA1 — Mobility (school education)

Learning on the move. SOML is accredited as a mobility consortium coordinator (KA121-SCH). Teachers, school leaders and pupils learn abroad through job shadowing, courses and exchanges.

  • Job shadowing at European partner schools
  • Courses for teachers and leadership
  • Pupil mobility & exchange
  • Structural funding through accreditation

Under our KA121-SCH accreditation we fund, on a structural basis: job shadowing (2–60 days), training courses (2–10 days), teaching assignments, group and individual pupil mobility (2–365 days), invited experts and preparatory visits. Every mobility has a learning goal (Learning Agreement) and recognition via Europass.

🛠️
KA220 · VET

KA220-VET — Vocational education

Cooperation partnerships in Vocational Education & Training. With European partners we work on entrepreneurship and green and digital skills for tomorrow's labour market.

  • Entrepreneurship & innovation in VET
  • Green and digital skills
  • Linking education and the labour market
  • Joint products with EU partners

KA220-VET are cooperation partnerships of at least three organisations from three programme countries, working together on innovation for 1–3 years. The result: freely available outputs — courses, toolkits, platforms — usable across vocational education.

🤝
KA220-SCH · PO-VO

KA220-SCH — School partnerships

Innovating together in primary and secondary education. In KA2 partnerships we develop new teaching methods with schools across Europe around AI, STEM, sustainability and digital citizenship.

  • Innovative teaching methods & materials
  • AI, STEM, sustainability & citizenship
  • International school development
  • Shareable, openly available results

In KA2 partnerships (KA220-SCH, and small-scale KA210) schools jointly develop new teaching methods and materials, test them in practice and share the results openly with other schools across Europe.
