Welcome to the NA at BIBB

We, the National Agency at the Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training, are your focal point in Germany for vocational and adult education within the Erasmus+ programme.

What is Erasmus+?

Erasmus+ is the EU's programme to support education, training, youth and sport in Europe. It has an estimated budget of around 26,2 billion euros. This is nearly double the funding compared to its predecessor programme (2014-2020). Set to last until 2027, Erasmus+ doesn't just have opportunities for students. It has opportunities for a wide variety of individuals and organisations. The 2021-2027 programme places a strong focus on social inclusion, the green and digital transitions, and promoting young people’s participation in democratic life.

The NA at BIBB is responsible for implenting Erasmus+ in VET as well as adult education in Germany.
