Mobility grants in vocational training - Staff

You must ensure your project is eligible before submitting a grant application with the program:

• Act as a teacher or guest speaker in courses, seminars or workshops for students or teachers in vocational training centres outside of Quebec;
• Carrying out targeted activities for prospecting and adopting models, developing partnerships, innovative practices, and tools in one’s specialized field in order to enhance expertise in a foreign vocational training institution or a relevant vocational training organization.
• Purely attending fairs, seminars or conventions is not eligible. However, it can be included in the project if it is carried out as part of other eligible activities.
• The length of the project must be at least 7 days (number of days devoted to carrying out the project, including 2 days for travel).
• Projects must be completed by August 31 at the latest.

The amounts awarded vary depending on the length of the stay outside of Quebec.

Eligible expenses for this scholarship are transportation, accommodation, and meals.

The annual budget awarded for all submitted projects is $85,000.

The Program will be implemented through two types of calls for proposals: a continuous annual call and another with a fixed submission deadline. The details of these calls are specified below.

The continuous annual call will allow Éducation internationale to process applications from April 1 of the current year until February 15 of the following year, with February 15 being the fixed submission deadline for the current school year.

Part of the budget will be allocated within the continuous call, while another part will be reserved until February 15 to give projects that are not ready to be submitted before this date a chance to still receive funding.

This means that the funds available for the continuous call are limited, and it is possible that after a certain date, we will no longer be able to grant funding during the year if the demand is too high. If this is the case, all individuals whose applications were received after the funds for the continuous call have been exhausted will have to wait until after February 15 to receive a response to their funding request.

It is also possible to submit a grant application retroactively, that is, after the project has taken place, provided it is within the same financial year.

You will receive confirmation of the receipt and compliance of your application by email within the week following its submission.

For the continuous call, confirmation of acceptance or rejection of your application will be confirmed no later than 6 weeks after the submission date.

For the annual call, confirmation of acceptance or rejection of your application will be confirmed no later than 6 weeks after the submission deadline, which is February 15.
