Large Co-operation Projects

Large Co-operation Projects

The Leonardo programme funds a number of opportunities for organisations involved in vocational education and training to develop new materials and manage European networks. 

Transfer of Innovation

Transfer of Innovation projects are partnerships for the transfer of training. You can build on the best practice in vocational education and training from Europe by transferring best practice between countries. Projects focus on customising training materials for the needs of learners and businesses in the partner countries.
