On 28 November 2012, the Academic Centre – International Cooperation held an explanatory session about mobility programmes, focusing on the Erasmus Programme aimed at students enrolled in year 5. The main objective of the session was to inform students about existing mobility programmes, which enable them to carry out teaching activities in foreign institutions as part of the year six clinical internship. Students were given an overview of the procedures needed to apply for a mobility programme and of the grants they can apply to fund them.

Another explanatory session was held on 11 January 2013, this time directed at students who wish to do a mobility at a higher education institution abroad.

This was the first time that the Academic Centre – International Cooperation organized this type of event, and it did so due to the increasing number of students who express interest in studying abroad during their academic career. It proved to be a way to reach a higher number of students at the same time, enabling them to ask all their questions.
