Who Are the Best Erasmus + Agencies in Europe?

If you’re looking to get in touch with an Erasmus+ agency in your country, but you’re unsure which the best one is for your needs, we’ll help. Organising an Erasmus+ internship can be an exciting time and even though you might be in a hurry to organise everything, it's important that you do your homework to find the best agency for your project.

How Do You Know If An Agency is Right For You?

We offer the biggest range of Erasmus+ projects and are usually the perfect match for people looking for high-quality Erasmus+ project management but we are not the ideal candidate for every type of school. In our blog you can find out if you are the right type of school to work with us.

To help you get started with your quest for the best agency, here are the top nine Erasmus+ agencies in Europe:

1          Go Europe, Berlin

The Go Europe work area was created in 2005 and enables around 500 vocational school students throughout Berlin to spend time abroad every year. Since 2005 the number and the quality of mobility measures have increased enormously.  The project manager, Klaus Naumann, hopes in the future even more vocational schools in Berlin will recognise the opportunities offered through taking up an Erasmus+ mobility and that many Erasmus+ trainees will take advantage of the opportunity. Klaus Naumann again says  “I think a situation arises in which the schools that do not participate in Erasmus+ are missing out. The whole experience is increasingly becoming an image factor, especially in the field of vocational training because ultimately, it has a lot to do with the attractiveness of the training. "
