The Government values international exchange and collaboration in education and training.<\/p>
Under the terms of the Withdrawal Agreement, the UK would continue to take part in current EU programmes, including Erasmus+, for the duration of the transition period. Any participation beyond this would be a matter for upcoming negotiations on our future relationship with the EU. While the regulations for future EU programmes are still in the process of being developed, the Political Declaration envisages the possibility of UK participation in EU programmes like Erasmus+ and the negotiation of general terms of participation.<\/p>
In the event that the UK leaves the EU with no agreement in place, the Government\u2019s guarantee will cover the payment of awards to UK applicants for all successful Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps bids submitted before the end of 2020. Furthermore, the Commission\u2019s Erasmus+ contingency regulation establishes that Key Action 1 mobilities, that are ongoing when the UK withdraws from the EU, do not have to be interrupted, even in a \u2018no deal\u2019 scenario. <\/strong><\/ins>This means UK Erasmus+ students already abroad will be able to complete their study placements.<\/p> <\/p>"}
