Blended Intensive Programme - BIP (new)
The Erasmus+ program enabled the partial participation of "partner countries" (third countries not associated to the programme) in joint intensive programs (BIP), but only as an institution that can only send its students and staff to events within the project whose coordinator is the institution from "programme countries".
- More information about this option is provided in the Erasmus+ Programme guide.
