EAEC
The European Association of ERASMUS Coordinators
The European Association of ERASMUS Coordinators (EAEC) is a membership network, which was founded in 2004 and currently has more than 140 university members.
The network is very active in European Funded projects and produces publications of interest to its members. Every week each network member receives alerts for Funding Calls and invitations for partnerships.
EAEC promotes mobility among university students, academic and administrative staff and promotes principles and participation in the ERASMUS+ European Commission Programme. The network achieves this by organizing seminars , conferences and networking meetings, with the aim of enabling direct communication among the Association's members and be a catalyst for increased mobility throughout Europe and beyond.
EAEC organizes the ERASMUS Congress and Exhibition, known as ERACON, where Erasmus Coordinators, Placement and Internships Managers, Researchers and Professionals with an interest in the Erasmus+ Programme are invited to participate, make presentations and submit written papers on their experiences in areas related to the Erasmus+ Mobility Programmes. For more information visit www.eracon.info
In addition, EAEC members can actively participate in the Networking Innovation Meetings organized by the network so that members can exploit to the fullest the European funding schemes and opportunities, leading them to successful proposals for funding and innovative projects. The EAEC is establishing the ECO (European Coordination Offices) in every European country with the aim to promote further networking within and between European countries.
