KA121 & KA122
KA121 & KA122 — Erasmus+ group mobility in France
Full logistical support for accredited (KA121) and short-term (KA122) Erasmus+ group mobility programmes in France. We manage host placements, accommodation, and on-the-ground support for groups of 5 to 60+ participants across 20+ French cities.
Operating Erasmus+ group mobility since 2009 — 8,500+ participants placed for accredited and project-based grant holders across France.
Action
KA121 for accredited annual envelopes; KA122 for non-accredited single-project grants — both under Erasmus+ KA1.
Group size
5 to 60+ participants per flow, with named accompanying staff supported in parallel.
Duration
Short flows 2–4 weeks; long flows 1–3 months. Mixed envelopes coordinated within one project cycle.
KA121 vs KA122 — in plain terms
Both are Erasmus+ funding lines that pay for groups of learners and staff to do work placements, training or job shadowing abroad. The difference is simple: KA121 is an annual budget given to organisations that already hold Erasmus+ accreditation — you plan multiple flows per year. KA122 is a one-off project grant for organisations that are not yet accredited — you apply, run one project, then either reapply or move toward accreditation. Both cover travel, subsistence, and organisational support. Both require the same on-the-ground operations in France: real host companies, safe accommodation, signed Learning Agreements, attendance, evaluations, and a closure report in the EU Beneficiary Module. Internships France is the receiving organisation that runs all of that for you, in 20+ French cities.
