Youth Works Hub has rounded up 11 fully funded Erasmus+ training courses and e-learning opportunities for youth workers in 2026 and 2027, with application deadlines between 8 November 2026 and 4 February 2027. The batch includes six training courses, three online e-learning events, two study visits, one conference and forum and one partnership-building activity, organised in Spain, Estonia, Finland, Tรผrkiye, Hungary, Poland, the Netherlands, Italy, France and Slovenia. Our guide to what an Erasmus+ training course is explains the main format.
The profiles and the country lists differ from call to call. The Finland rural youth work call lists 250 countries, while the Tleล course in Poland lists seven and the Breลพice course in Slovenia 13, and several calls name specific profiles such as young sports educators, professionals who work with young parents or youth policy makers. Our overview of eligible countries for Erasmus+ and ESC explains the general country rules.
The topics range from AI and digital pedagogy to environmental education, neurodiversity, sport and gender equality, rural youth work, young parents and circus pedagogy, and two of the calls are study visits in Finland. Our guide to what a study visit is explains this format.
Each call has its own angle:
๐ธ๐ฎ Slovenia: a training course in Breลพice introduces circus and theatre as practical tools for youth work, and no previous circus or theatre experience is required.
๐ต๐ฑ Poland: Tleล hosts a seven-day course where youth workers design, prototype and test educational games on environmental issues.
๐ช๐ธ Spain: Llinars del Vallรจs hosts a course on using sport as a tool for social inclusion, with a focus on gender equality.
๐ณ๐ฑ Netherlands: an online event on neurodiversity explores more inclusive educational practices in youth work across Europe.
๐ซ๐ท France: Marseille hosts a course on power and decision making inside youth organisations, built around a collective coordination model inspired by sociocratic principles.
๐ช๐ช Estonia: an online challenge helps participants write a real KA2 small-scale partnership application on youth participation.
๐น๐ท Tรผrkiye: Antalya hosts a conference and forum on digital pedagogy, hands-on AI tools and the ethics of AI in non-formal education and youth employment.
Erasmus+ covers travel and stay for the in-person activities in this batch, and the three e-learning events run online. According to Youth Works Hub's review, the Breลพice call in Slovenia states its travel reimbursement amounts, from 28 EUR for Slovenia to 309 EUR for Spain, France, Italy, Poland, Germany, Portugal, Czechia and Tรผrkiye, with higher amounts for green travel. The same call states that there is no participation fee and that food and accommodation are provided by the hosting organisation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a participation fee for these Erasmus+ calls?
The Breลพice call in Slovenia states that there is no participation fee. According to that call, food and accommodation are provided by the hosting organisation and travel costs are reimbursed by country. The other calls are described on their own pages, so check each one for its costs before you apply. Our guide to what Erasmus+ covers breaks down which costs the programme pays.
Who can apply for these 11 Erasmus+ calls?
Each call has its own list of eligible countries, from seven for the Tleล course to 250 for the Finland rural youth work call. According to the Rome call, participants should be aged 18 or over, should have taken part in an international activity before, have the support of their organisation and be able to work in English, and the Tleล course is recommended for ages 18 and over. The Finland young parents call is not aimed at students, and the Breลพice course needs no previous circus or theatre experience. Our guide to who can apply for Erasmus+ and ESC explains the general eligibility rules.
Grouped by theme, the batch falls a few ways. Digital and environmental topics run through the Antalya conference on AI and the Tleล games course, while inclusion and youth work for specific groups shape the Netherlands neurodiversity event, the Llinars del Vallรจs sports course, the Finland young parents study visit and the Finland rural youth work call. Partnerships and project writing come together in Szeged, Rome and the Estonia KA2 challenge, and Marseille, Breลพice and Tortosa focus on governance, circus pedagogy and nature-inspired leadership. Our guide to Erasmus+ mobility of youth workers explains what these learning activities are.
Every call above has its own page on Youth Works Hub, with the full description and the apply button. Our guide to preparing a strong Erasmus+ and ESC application gives practical tips for writing one. Pick the calls that match your work and apply before the deadline.
