Study visits for education specialists

Please note that individuals, institutions or organisations from an EU-country that are interested in engaging in study visits with Norway should contact the National Agency (NA) of their respective country.

About study visits
The action of study visits is targeted at education specialists and decision makers. The target group for this action are people who according to their professional duties and profiles are qualified to report on their findings to policy makers, to implement their new knowledge into their professional environment and to act as multipliers.

Objectives
The main objectives are the following:

• To enable those exercising important educational responsibilities at local or regional (and in some cases national) levels to review and modify their work in the light of direct experience of educational structures and reforms in other Member States.
• To increase the amount of high-quality, selected and up-to-date information about education developments throughout the Community which is available to policy makers.

This action no doubt also incorporates a strong European dimension, through the nature of activities organised and the multilateral formula of the study visits.
