Traineeship after graduation What is it all about? A traineeship (no study) outside Belgium and/or your country of origin (if not Belgium)* of at least 2 months, a traineeship that you look for yourself as soon as you have graduated. For how long? After graduation you can do a traineeship for a maximum of 12 months. The number of months you went on Erasmus exchange during your last study cycle will be deducted from your total Erasmus grant. When to apply? There is no formal application deadline and grants are awarded on a first-come-first-serve base. Do you want to be sure of a grant? Register during the last year of your study programme and BEFORE the day you graduate. Even if you do not have any particular plans for a traineeship yet.

Mobility Online AP Hogeschool Antwerp uses an online management system for the administrative follow up of your student mobility, from start (application) til finish (return from your exchange). All administrative formalities that you have to run through for AP Hogeschool Antwerp, will be done entirely via a personal workflow in Mobility Online. Who has to submit a request in Mobility Online? Only if you request a study exchange, do you have to make use of Mobility Online (see manual)
Exchange grants To be able to afford all additional costs during your exchange, we foresee grants for exchange students. The grant is meant as a resource for the extra travel and accommodation costs of the student. It does not cover the full costs abroad. Calculation and appproval are dependant on categories. More information on the AP website: https://student.ap.be/en/grants If there is a shortage of grants, the students who have submitted a request for a grant ON TIME and by the set deadline (= a sent Grant agreement / Erasmus grant contract) will be ranked in the order of date of request until the available grant money has been completely allocated. Students with a study grant keep this grant during their months abroad. Pay attention, as you have to submit this request yourself! For students with a disability, an additional grant is possible.
