Musikene has been taking an active part in the Erasmus Programme since 2003-2004, developing a course of action that involves cooperation and mobility on an international level. We try to promote cooperation among competent higher educational establishments with this programme within the European framework and to work together in order to make progress in different educational projects via different approaches, albeit ones which complement each other and help to provide students with the finest musical and personal education possible. For that, we promote the mobility of students, teachers and administrative and service staff. The main aims of Erasmus student mobility are as follows: • To enable students to gain educational, linguistic and cultural benefit from the learning experience in other European countries. • To promote cooperation among institutions and enrich the educational environment of host institutions. • To help create a community of highly-qualified young people and future professionals with open minds and international experience. • To facilitate the transfer of credits and recognition of overseas attachments via the ECTS system or some other compatible system of credits. The duration of mobility is a minimum 3 and a maximum 12 months. The aims of teaching staff mobility are as follows: • To enable students who are unable to take part in a mobility programme to benefit from the knowledge and experience of academic staff from higher educational establishments in other European countries. • To promote the exchange of competences and experience in pedagogic methods. • To encourage higher educational establishments to broaden and enrich the variety and content of the courses they offer. The features of this course of action are as follows: The main activity is the teaching provided by a lecturer from a higher educational establishment or staff from another higher educational establishment in a partner country, even though other activities may be developed apart from this. Teaching staff from higher educational establishments who are in possession of an Erasmus University Card or company staff will be able to take part. Teaching staff who take part in a mobility programme must belong to the department or faculty of the host institution. This implies that: • Teaching staff mobility is based on inter-institutional agreements. • Partner higher educational establishments must agree prior to the overseas attachment as to the syllabus that will be followed by visiting lecturers. The main aims of the Mobility for training: This involves the mobility of non-teaching staff from a higher educational establishment to another partner higher educational establishment. The aim is to enable beneficiaries to benefit from the experiences and good practices pursued by the partner institution and to improve the skills required of their current job. The main activity involves a brief stay at the partner institution that can be referred to in various ways: brief service assignments, observation of professionals, study visits, improve competence on other languages that will help them on their daily jobs, etc. All these mobilities are part of the enrichment of teaching in our education community directly or indirectly, either by the direct experience of those who live the experience or through sharing the experience and what learned with the rest. In practice, SMS mobilities happens after a process which start at the beginning of the school year (preselection, selection by the home center, preparation of the applications and documents, sending documentation to the host institutions, selection by the Host Conservatories, acceptance of student and starting the mobility process after informing all the process details, documentation, agreement to sign, etc. This year there have been 5 student movilities for studies, all of them highly satisfactory and in fully recognized by our institution. For STA and STT mobilities for STT the process starts the previous academic year. There is a period to ask for mobilities, even if the personal of our Center can apply for a mobility or for a new project whenever they need it during the year. The ones that apply during the open period have usually the priority. This year there have been three teaching mobilities even if there were more teachers interested who could not do it and two staff training mobilities (one more than that granted).
