There is no straightforward and universal algorithm of actions. However, the following algorithm can help you better structure your preparation for the process.
1. Idea/concept of Jean Monnet project proposal
It is highly recommended to start the preparation for any call under the Erasmus+ programme with researching the Erasmus+ Programme Guide that gives thorough information about the objectives and priorities of all actions. The Programme Guide is available in the “Helpful materials on Jean Monnet” section and in “Useful resources” section of our website.
Any project starts with an idea/concept which will later build the topic of the project proposal. Before building the topic, please read the following materials:
Erasmus+ Programme Guide that presents thorough information on the aims, objectives, priorities, expected results and differences between different types of Jean Monnet actions.
Database of Jean Monnet projects with Kazakhstani HEIs. This file gives you the list of all past and current Jean Monnet projects with the participation of Kazakhstani HEIs.
E+ Projects results platform where you can see all Erasmus+ projects selected for funding.
Watch the recordings of infosessions held by the NEO KZ on this action. Links are available in “Helpful materials on Jean Monnet” section.
2. Preparation of Jean Monnet project proposal
In order to start preparing the project proposal, we recommend you to have a look at last year’s proposal form. However, you should fill out the proposal form posted on the FTP after the call is announced. Proposal forms from previous calls are available in the “Helpful materials on Jean Monnet” section.
3. Submission of Jean Monnet project proposals
Before the call is announced we invite you:
to take part in online infosessions held by the EACEA during which you will receive the latest updates about the call and helpful tips on preparing a competitive project proposal.
to research the latest Erasmus+ Programme Guide, which is updated annually after the call is announced.
After the call is announced please read the call documents, application form, budget table and attend the NEO KZ information and training sessions.
The project proposal is submitted by an HEI representative on FTP. Jean Monnet Modules, Chairs and Centres of Excellence do not need a consortium. Thus, the project proposal is submitted by an individual HEI. It is highly recommended to complete the submission process well ahead of the deadline.
4. Jean Monnet selection results
As a rule, the selection results are out in late July or early August every year. Coordinating university and all members of the consortium will receive a notification on FTP. The NEO KZ will also post the selection results on its website and social media channels.
5. Signing of declaration & grant agreement; Start of Jean Monnet project
In case the project is selected for funding, a Coordinator is expected to sign necessary documents on FTP. Please contact the NEO KZ in case of facing difficulties in signing the documents. After all due documents are signed, the project starts.
