About Us

Here at FORMALTA, we specialise in connecting educational, not for profit and commercial organisations with EU funds for educational, vocational and training purposes with particular specialisation of the Erasmus Plus Programme. As

As for transnational mobility, we are specialised in Outgoing and Incoming European Mobility Projects and related services. We send and host students, professors, trainees and apprentices coming from all around Europe for internships from 2 weeks up to 6 months. The Mobility projects are comprised of organizations and schools from diverse and thriving sectors, such as: tourism, hospitality, agribusiness, textile and clothing, marketing and communication, ICT, mechanics and robotics, automotive and aerospace, green economy and social innovation. We arrange professional training courses for young people and adults looking to acquire new abilities and competencies for better integration in to the labour market; our expert mentors will orientate you and guide you through the process. Our unique feature is the use of a non-formal education system (NFE) which is characterised by intense cultural exchanges and creative activities with the main purpose of helping the participants successfully integrate themselves in the country and city of destination.
