Follow us as we pioneer apprenticeship mobility standards for European University Alliances.
Kicking off in March 2025, APP-MOBILITY is setting up to harmonise apprenticeship mobility for joint bachelor, master, and PhD programmes across Europe. The APP-MOBILITY project is run by partners and universities of the European Dual Studies University – EU4Dual.

The goal of APP-MOBILITY is to make it easier for students to work and study in various countries. To this end, the project partnership is creating a European Model for Dual Education Apprenticeship Mobilities. Over the project’s 3-year journey, you will be able to:
- Dive into 30 real case studies to build a flexible typology of work-integrated models. Explore what works where—and how to apply it.
- Download standardised, legally compliant apprenticeship contract templates—templates you can trust.
- Connect with a searchable register of 200 companies providing apprenticeships.
- Join an apprenticeship support network. Learn from online training and video guides.
- Explore tools with robust evaluation criteria for companies and programmes.
- Adopt and implement the APP-Mobility framework for developing apprenticeship mobility programmes/
- Support the project’s call to policymakers on how to address regulatory fragmentation, especially in credit systems and the legal governance of apprenticeships.
More specifically, the APP-MOBILITY partnership seeks to work with you, if your role relates to any of the following:
Student apprentices:
APP-MOBILITY will help get you started, travel, and feel confident in your mobility. By gaining practical skills in international settings, apprentices boost their employability. You will get support from mobility coordinators before, during, and after placement —backed by standardised contracts, and clear learning goals.
Higher Education Institutions:
APP-MOBILITY will provide tested models and frameworks to integrate mobility into your dual education programmes—from Bachelor to PhD. Strengthen ties with industry and boost your programme quality through international placements. Apprenticeship mobility helps to increase institutional impact and attract new students.
Mobility and programme coordinators:
APP-MOBILITY cannot innovate apprenticeship mobility programmes without you. You will be part of a cross-institutional network of professionals working in contemporary managerial and academic fields. We will enhance both inter- and intra-institutional support for your role through the finalised APP-Mobility framework as well as opportunities for peer learning and collaboration throughout the project.
Employers:
Looking for well-prepared, motivated graduates? Hire skilled students trained in both theory and practice. Save time with easy-to-use, standardised contracts and guidelines. APP-MOBILITY will help you simplify contracts, clarify expectations, and benefit from a new generation of future-ready professionals.
Policy and public sector:
APP-MOBILITY offers a working blueprint for cross-border apprenticeship collaboration. Use our project as a working model to reform mobility at regional and EU levels. The project’s tested solutions will align with European frameworks and can help shape effective education and labour policy.
