www.leonardo.org.uk Leonardo da Vinci
If
you are not fully au fait with the European Community’s vocational training
programme, Leonardo da Vinci, then this is the place to head for. Well-designed
and easy-to-navigate, the site spells out the aim of the project, which is to
support national training strategies through funding a range of transnational
partnership projects. Current UK-based projects range from language training
for lorry drivers to strengthening European psychotherapy training. The site
gives a searchable database and overview of the projects running, and every
year Leonardo supports 200 new projects led by organisations throughout the UK.
Any public, semi-public or private organisation can apply for Leonardo funding
– all applications must be supported by a partnership of European
organisations. The site gives full details on how to apply, news updates,
relevant documents and a useful FAQ section.
