What If Your Next Art Lesson Took Place in Rome?
Some lessons are easier to remember when you experience them. Imagine standing in front of the Colosseum, discovering how its arches have stood for centuries. Or sitting in Piazza Navona, sketchbook in hand, trying to capture the movement, shapes, and details around you. For students, these moments can turn a school subject into a personal […]

Civic Education in Rome: Discover European Values Through Real-World Learning
What if students could experience democracy instead of simply reading about it? Imagine discussing freedom of expression in a historic Roman square.

These are examples of […]
The European Democracy Shield: What It Means for Adult Education Providers in 2026

Erasmus+ Dissemination and Exploitation: Why Project Results Disappear After Funding
Imagine spending two years developing an educational toolkit with partners across Europe. Your team conducts research, organises workshops, tests materials, and publishes the final results.

The toolkit is rarely downloaded, […]
KA1 vs KA2 Erasmus+: How to Use Mobility Funding to Prepare for Cooperation Partnerships
“Should our organisation move from KA1 to KA2?” “Are we ready to manage a Cooperation Partnership?” These are two common questions among Erasmus+ coordinators.

Music Educational Trip in Rome: Learning Through Sound and the City
Rome is a city we usually experience through what we see. Ancient monuments, busy piazzas, fountains, parks and historic streets immediately attract our attention.

Architecture Educational Trip in Rome: Learning Through the City
Rome is often described as an open-air museum. But for students, the city can be much more than a place to admire historic buildings and take photographs.

Alfa Edu’s Architecture Educational Trip in Rome is a six-day […]
Erasmus+ Partner Vetting: Red Flags and Green Flags Before You Sign a Mandate
Finding a partner organisation for an Erasmus+ project can feel a little like using a dating app. Every profile looks professional. Everyone claims to be “experienced,” “passionate,” and “reliable.” Then the Grant Agreement is signed, the first payment arrives, and a partner stops answering emails. We discussed this in the “Partner Hunting – Red Flags […]
