From 10 December 2025 to 12 January 2026, you can enrol in the EC2U Lifelong Learning courses for the second semester of the current academic year.

Characterised by an interdisciplinary approach and rooted in an international dimension, the Lifelong Learning courses help students in developing transversal competences and soft skills required by the labour market, essential to navigate the changes shaping our society. The UN 2030 Agenda Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are among the topics covered, each addressed within the respective course programmes. In particular, the Lifelong Learning offer focuses on themes that inspire the Alliance, such as Good Health and Well-being (SDG 3), Quality Education (SDG 4), Sustainable Cities and Communities (SDG 11) and Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions (SDG 16).

Choose the courses and register

You can find at this link the list of available courses, which are offered in English or in the language of the university delivering the course. Some are taught online (live or on-demand), while others take place on-site at the participating universities. Students may take the online courses offered by other EC2U partner universities as extracurricular activities. If attended in person - depending on each student’s academic regulations - courses may be included in the Erasmus+ Learning Agreement or attended during mobility periods at the partner university offering them.

Please note: For on-site courses, no mobility grants or funds are currently available to cover travel or accommodation costs at the host universities. Participation is therefore limited to students who are already present at the university providing the course.

Workload and credits may vary. Depending on each university’s internal regulations, courses may be offered free of charge or require a small fee.
