Blended Intensive Programmes

Erasmus+ Blended Intensive Programmes (BIPs) are short, intensive programmes that use innovative ways of learning and teaching, including the use of online cooperation. The programmes may include challenge based learning where transnational and transdisciplinary teams work together to tackle challenges for example those linked to the societal challenges identified by regions or cities. The intensive programme should have added value compared to existing courses or trainings offered by the participating higher education institutions. Each participant should get a mobility grant from her/his sending institution: individual support: 70€ for the days 1-14 and 50€ for days 15 to 30.
