Support for teachers is, together with the horizontal priority of inclusion, mentioned in the Swedish NAs TCA strategy as matters of priority. As we know mobility among teachers is decreasing, and the numbers are already low among teacher students we will organize a transnational contact seminar addressing these topics. 

Focus areas for the content of the program: 

• The importance of Internationalisation and Mobility in Teacher Education 

Spark a discussion on the importance of internationalisation and mobility among teachers and teacher students by inspirational speaker/-s. An introduction with a general outlook, to our increasingly interconnected world and the upcoming priorities of competitiveness and sustainable competitiveness within KA1, emphasizing the need for a skilled and adaptable workforce. Internationalisation in teacher education involves integrating global perspectives into the curriculum, foster inter-cultural understanding and preparing teachers to educate students from diverse backgrounds. This will enhance the quality of education and equip future generations with the skills needed. This also aligns with the broader goals of creating resilient and forward-thinking educational systems.

• Challenges and solutions

Address the identified challenges and possible solutions to increase mobility among teacher students and teachers, as identified by the Working group Inter-Agencies Erasmus+ ‘European mobility of future teachers, teachers and trainers’, 2022-2023.

The long-term goal is to increase the number of mobilities among teaching staff (STA) as well as teacher students, by i.a. sharing best practices and networking. The immediate goal is to spark a discussion on the importance of mobility among teachers and teacher students and to inspire more teachers to go on mobility.

We welcome administrative staff, teaching staff teacher and other support staff responsible for teacher training programmes.
