Starting next year, participants in professional courses for adults in Europe will have the opportunity to travel for free overseas internships in their specialty. Those who learn new professional skills such as programming, entrepreneurship or organic farming will be able to travel to another EU country and study from one week to several months on another educational program of the same profile..

While this option will be available only for citizens of the European Union, but in the future, residents of other countries will also be able to participate in such internships.. The first such internships are planned for the fall of 2021, if the epidemiological situation allows, Europulse notes..

These internships will be conducted by the European Union's Erasmus + program, which organizes academic exchanges and internships for university students.

Earlier, Erasmus + reported that the total number of participants in academic exchange programs will triple in 2021-2027 compared to 2014-2020..
