A staff mobility activity is a great way to pick up new ideas and practices, develop skills in your field, and build and develop international relationships. Erasmus+ re-association and staff mobility We welcome the news that the UK will rejoin the Erasmus+ programme from 2027, having left the scheme in 2020 as part of the post-Brexit deal with the European Union.
