About Europass Teacher Academy

A broad course catalogue for educators

Europass Teacher Academy organizes professional-development courses for teachers and other school staff. Its catalogue groups training by topic, teaching role, subject, age group, skill level, duration and location. Subjects span artificial intelligence and digital tools, coding, digital literacy, STEM and STEAM, arts, wellbeing, classroom management, inclusive education, creativity, language teaching, project-based learning, environmental sustainability, leadership and school innovation. Courses are open to a broad educational audience, while some are designed for particular roles such as school principals, librarians, administrators, counsellors and special-needs educators.

Course formats and language support

The academy lists three-day and six-day courses, one-week programs, retreats, festivals and online options. Its standard one-week courses are described as five hours per day from Monday to Friday, with excursions on Saturday; courses are conducted in English. For participants less confident in English, the academy offers Easy English options at A1.2–A2 that use a slower pace and live translation tools, bringing together participants with similar proficiency. The site also allows visitors to combine two one-week courses into a two-week program, with suggested combinations shown on individual course pages.

Training locations and Erasmus+ planning

In-person courses are offered in destinations across Europe, including Florence, Rome, Trapani, Dublin, Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia, Lisbon, Amsterdam, Berlin, Vienna, Paris, Athens, Split, Prague, Istanbul and other cities. The location catalogue lets educators compare courses by destination and topic. The academy’s Erasmus+ resource section covers KA1 mobility, KA2 partnerships, accreditation, funding deadlines, horizontal priorities and project dissemination. These materials help schools understand the application and planning process; grant availability and eligibility depend on the relevant program rules and each institution’s circumstances.

Special programs, festivals and partnerships

In addition to scheduled courses, the organization lists education festivals, school-group mobilities, job-shadowing placement support and a platform for Erasmus partnerships. Festival and themed programs include subjects such as artificial intelligence in education, digital transformation, cultural heritage and wellbeing. The website also provides an online-course platform and project resources. Schools organizing a group mobility can use the contact team to discuss course selection and arrangements; the academy’s site distinguishes the training provider from the local companies that organize courses at the various destinations.
