The Erasmus Mobility activity called STA (STAFF TEACHING ASSIGNMENT) allows the sharing of skills and disciplinary experience as well as the discovery of new methodologies by giving classes integrated into the partner institution’s program.
Since 1987, the Erasmus + Program boosted European student’s mobility activities; those exchanges would not have been possible without the existing connections between the teaching staff of partner universities.
The education missions are based on the principle of an already existing bilateral agreement between the host and the home institutions.

Mission’s Objective: give classes integrated in the partner institution’s official program, allowing students not able to take part in a European mobility activity to benefit from the instruction of another European country’s teacher in their own institution.
In countries participating to the program:
There are two possible cases:
Application procedure:
If the inter-university agreement already exists, the International Relations Office will ask you to register on our incoming staff mobility portal, fill out a form online and upload the requested documents.
Contact our International Relations Office: staff-mobility @ u-bordeaux-montaigne.fr to receive a letter of invitation indicating the exact dates of your stay.
Duration of the education mission:
Teachers can undertake educational missions in a European partner’s institution. The mobility period can vary between 2 days and 5 days of work with at least 8 hours of teaching. You may be granted one travel day before and/or after your mobility. Please note: holidays and weekends are not taken into account unless they are worked or traveled.
Financing the mobility:
Your home institution will finance your stay. This is governed by European Commission regulations, which allocate a budget based on specific and unavoidable criteria. Funding is based on the combined criteria of distance and cost of living in the host country, set by the European Commission. Grants are calculated on the basis of fixed grant sums, determined annually, which break down into 2 separate components: travel costs and subsistence costs.
Pre-departure procedure:
The International Relations Office at your home institution will draw up the compulsory documents required by the European Commission, i.e. the Erasmus+ Kit (mobility contract and teaching contract signed by the home university and the host institution).
During and after mobility:
A certificate of attendance to be signed on site by the host institution (excluding travel days) to be sent to the International Office.
