One-Week Course in: SPLIT (CROATIA)
Targeted to Intermediate English (B1+) speakers.
Concept by Enver Rakovic
Course Description:
Forget the annual stress of writing project proposals that may or may not be funded. Erasmus+ Accreditation is your “VIP Membership” to the world of European cooperation. This course is not just a theoretical lecture; it is an intensive incubator where we transform your initial ideas into a concrete, strategic plan that secures stable funding for your institution until 2027.
Purpose of the training
To liberate your organization from administrative burdens. The purpose is to move from “surviving project-to-project” to systemic institutional development. Our goal is for participants to leave the seminar with a clear vision of how to transform their school or center into a modern, European-recognized institution by utilizing the “fast track” funding benefits.
Learning Outcomes: By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Secure Your Budget – Learn how a single application can guarantee mobility funds for several years.
- Strategy over Administration – Develop a high-quality “Erasmus Plan” perfectly aligned with your institution’s needs.
- Institutional Branding – Position your school/center as a highly desirable partner in Europe.
- Mastering Standards – Implement the digital, green, and inclusive practices most valued by EU evaluators.
Agenda

- Using AI Tools (ChatGPT, Claude) for Erasmus+ Project Design – Ethical and Smart. In this module, participants explore how to responsibly use AI tools such as ChatGPT and Claude to support Erasmus+ project writing, without outsourcing their thinking or risking problems with plagiarism and AI‑detection tools.

Month 1 – After the Course – Follow‑up mentoring (online)
Approximately one month after the end of the course, when participants actually start drafting their Erasmus+ application, each participant will receive up to 2 hours of individual online mentoring (1:1 consultations). During these sessions, participants will work together with the trainer on their draft application, check its alignment with the call objectives and quality criteria, and receive concrete suggestions on how to further strengthen the project’s relevance, logic, activities, budget, and impact plan.

Certificate
Participants who take part in at least 80% of the sessions will proudly receive a Certificate of Attendance, handed out at the end of the course on Friday.
Schedule
Sessions are organized either in the morning or in the afternoon, allowing the training provider to shape the timetable in the way that best supports learning dynamics and group needs. The exact outline may vary depending on participants’ interests and the trainer’s professional judgment, so if there is a topic you would particularly like to explore, simply let us know at least 4 weeks in advance. A final, detailed schedule will be shared with all confirmed participants 2 weeks before the course, giving you plenty of time to prepare.
Cultural activities
Most cultural experiences are planned for Saturday so that you can fully enjoy the local atmosphere without rushing. If the programme includes museum tickets, city cards or activities delivered by an external tour operator, you are welcome to use them earlier in the week if that suits you better, bearing in mind that in that case there will be no additional cultural programme on Saturday. For inspiration and practical details, you are encouraged to explore the official website of the destination city in advance.
Partner base “Ex‑Alumni”
We maintain a closed digital platform, a dedicated LinkedIn group exclusively for our former participants. Through this Ex‑Alumni network, we can connect you with reliable partners from Croatia and the wider region who have successfully completed our training, which significantly reduces the risk of unsuitable or underperforming partners in KA2 projects.
