Student Mobility for Traineeships (SMT)

After the Mobility

After the mobility ends, the student is requested to submit to VUM International Mobility Office the following documents:

  1. Proof of travel – hard copies (or digital versions) of the boarding passes, bus/train tickets and other applicable documents for the travel from the sending to the receiving organisation and back. The actual duration of the mobility period (which shall be not less than 2 months/62 days) is calculated based on the number of days spent in the receiving institution, and does not include the days for travelling
  2. Accurately filled out and signed sections of Annex 1 of the Learning Agreement for Traineeship: Before, During, and After the Mobility  Upon the mobility completion, the host institution fills out and issues a duly signed and stamped After the Mobility part of the Learning Agreement for Traineeship. The latter provides evidence and evaluates the student’s performance by listing the skills and knowledge gained and the practical work performed. After the Mobility part assists VUM in the process of ECTS recognition.
  3. Confirmation of stay – an official document confirming the exact start and end dates of the mobility duly signed and stamped by the receiving organisation
  4. OLS English language test results certificate 
  5. Online EU survey – at the end of every mobility, participants receive an email to fill in an online survey on the Beneficiaries module platform of the Erasmus+ programme

All reporting documents shall be submitted no later than 10 calendar days after the end of the mobility.  The balance payment of the mobility grant (when applicable) shall be released in 10 working days after the full set of reporting documents is properly submitted by the student.

In addition to the mobility reporting, students shall also make sure to complete the academic reporting of their internships in order to receive grades for the module Summer Internship (where applicable). Further information about process is available in the Module Books of the respective programme.

VUM applies flexibility in the ECTS recognition process of credits obtained by the students during Erasmus+ mobility. ECTS recognition is carried out in line with the Rules and Regulations for ECTS Implementation at VUM. Actual ECTS recognition is executed by the Academic Director who works closely with an appointed Committee. They examine the After the Mobility part of the Learning Agreement for Studies and any other relevant documentation regarding the student’s performance. The decision of the Committee regarding ECTS recognition is included in a protocol and is later referred to in the student’s Diploma Supplement.
