Scottish Education Exchange Programme: Test and Learn project

Information on the Scottish Education Exchange Programme Test and Learn project, including eligibility and how to apply.


Who can apply

Scottish colleges and universities can apply for the grants to develop opportunities to learn and share new skills and experiences through international mobilities and strategic partnerships/alliances.  

Grant funding can also be used to support participation in or development of international partnerships or networks and alliances.

Projects can also include collaborations with Scottish schools and other Scottish Government recognised education providers.

It is not possible for overseas institutions to apply for Test and Learn project funding.

It is possible for international partners to contribute additional funding to partnerships.

For projects to be considered for funding, it must be possible for them to run between 1 October 2024 to 31 March 2025.

The Test and Learn project has three objectives:

  • maintain, as far as possible the Erasmus+ approach, with projects being led by Scotland’s higher education sector
  • to encourage the development of international partnerships between colleges and universities
  • support the collaborative ambition set out in Scotland’s International Education Strategy, through alignment to the key actions
