Erasmus+ CoVE — Centres of Vocational Excellence
€68M envelope, deadline 3 September 2026. For international consortia involving universities, BCUs, and sector partners.
Erasmus+ Centres of Vocational Excellence (CoVE) funds the creation of international centres of vocational excellence. A consortium of at least 8 partners from 4 programme countries is required — typically: a Polish technical university + a technical school + a BCU + sector partners (Pol-Med can sit on the letter-of-intent as an equipment supplier).
From a procurement standpoint: the application requires a list of infrastructure including educational stations, programmable control platforms, and teacher competencies. Pol-Med ships the Interactive Platform plus advanced classical stations and a reference letter for the application file.
