This document provides guidance on applying for funding under Key Action 2 of the Erasmus+ programme. Key Action 2 supports strategic partnerships and knowledge alliances aimed at modernizing education, training, and youth work. It replaces previous EU programmes and has a simplified structure based on key actions. Strategic partnerships must involve organizations from at least three countries and can address themes like skills development, entrepreneurship, and increasing labour market relevance. The application process involves completing an online form with details of project objectives, activities, budget, and impact.

Editor's Notes
FHL
KA2 HE intensive programmes but not stand alone; centralised actions (which);
Tempus – not yet
Round 1 “countries” = programme countries
Objectives and activities ie looking for well-structured project.
Attainment levels
Priorities:
Need to know partner PICs
Rationale and needs: In context of EU priorities as laid out in Programme Guide p 26-27 and 93-94. evidence of needs eg needs analysis
innovative or complementary – this or other organisations, why new, no overlap (docs mention rights)
Partners in context of objectives. New – because more impact on them.
Priorities and Topics CHECK
Not intellectual outputs, multiplier events, T&L,
Preparation – expected to be included under activities but could also be before
Include simple work programme/ timeline as annex – EC may provide a template.
Learning outcomes are recognised and validated in the same way as under KA1 and in line with the ECHE. ECTS recommended for recognition.
“substantial positive impact” on participating organisations, staff and learners – occurring during and remaining after the project.
Outside the organisations ie could be transferred and used in other European countries. Incl, innovation at systems level, input to policy. (proportionality) scaleability
Quality of plan – appropriateness eg of target groups for dissemination of specific results; will ensure best use of results; adequate resources.
If relevant, open access to materials, documents, media,
In context going beyond project plans for a multiplier effect;
If relevant, integrated in management and pedagogy of participating organisations
Participating organisations can if relevant attract cofunding or other support to ensure sustainability of activities and continued use of outputs and results.
