The event amplifies the Erasmus Generation’s role in shaping how competences are built through volunteering and student-led mobility\, while advancing the impact and recognition of student engagement among key stakeholders. EGM 2026 will be held from the 16th to the 19th of April 2026 at the University of Split\, Croatia. \nWith the central theme of “Port of Mobility – Gateway to Skills”\, this unique event will focuse on the development of skills through student mobility.

In the context of Europe’s ambition to build a Union of Skills\, the session aims to highlight how mobility opportunities contribute to the development of competences\, shape students’ perspectives and personal growth\, and strengthen the connection between higher education and the labour market. \nWithin this framework\, the panel discussion will focus specifically on traineeships as an important component ofthe Erasmus+ mobility experience. Traineeships offer students the opportunity to complement their academic mobility with practical experience\, thereby developing professional and transversal competences while gaining exposure to international working environments. \nThe objective of this discussion is to explore how traineeships support students’ learning journeys and professional developmentthrough mobility\, and how these experiences help translate international mobility into concrete career opportunities. The panel aims to highlight the value of traineeships within the broader Erasmus+ ecosystem\, while reflecting on how skills gained through mobility can be better recognised and connected to students’ future professional pathways. It will also specifically address what actually makes a high-quality traineeship\, as well as measures that can be implemented to ensure this is the experience of all Erasmus+ trainees. \nMore information can be found here.

SUMMARY:ISB FEEDBACK SESSIONS 2026
DESCRIPTION:It is that time of the year again: Nannette Ripmeester (Director Surveys Europe\, Africa & North America for etio) will present the feedback results of Europe\, North America\, and Africa (Northern Hemisphere)\, based on the International Student Barometer™ (ISB) data. These invitation-only ISB feedback sessions for the northern hemisphere are taking place from March 2 until April 15\, 2026. \nThe International Student Barometer™ (ISB)\, the largest global benchmark survey on student satisfaction\, tracks and compares the decision-making\, expectations\, perceptions and intentions of international students from application to graduation. It enables institutions to make informed decisions to enhance the international student experience and drive successful recruitment and marketing strategies.  For some institutions\, we survey both international (ISB) and domestic (SB) students\, allowing strong indicators as to whether an issue is only relevant for your international student cohort or whether it is an issue that affects both international and domestic students. \nNext to Student Barometer for inbound students\, Etio has the iMPACT survey for outbound students.

DESCRIPTION:Join Nannette Ripmeester (Expertise in Labour Mobility / etio) for an insightful APAIE poster presentation about “Beyond Borders\, Within Reach: Global approaches on to better the international student journey relevant for Asia-Pacific HEI’s” at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. \nPoster Information \nThis poster explores how insights from the International Student Barometer (ISB)—a global large scale dataset of currently enrolled international students—can be used by Higher Education Institutions in the Asia-Pacific region to improve the international student journey. Through a comparative lens\, we showcase how institutions across the globe are using ISB data leveraging international benchmarking to design stronger student journeys\, delivering the ROI that currently enrolled (and future generations of!) students are expecting from their institutions of choice. We will showcase Good Practice examples that reflect international student needs. Through case studies and visualised data comparisons\, the poster will support Asia-Pacific Higher Education Institutions in being active contributors to a global community of good practice. \nThe Asia-Pacific Association for International Education (APAIE) 2026 conference scheduled on February 23-27th will foster collaboration\, innovation\, and knowledge-sharing to shape the future of international higher education as we explore the theme\, Asia-Pacific Partnerships for the Global Good\, from diverse perspectives.
