The central program in higher education is Erasmus. The integration of higher education is an important policy field of the EU, and has a huge role in international partnerships agreements with other countries.

There are different university assocations, like EAIE (European Assocation for International Education).

For individuals there is Ploteus: an Portal on Learning Opportunities throughout the European Space, you can find it here.

Important programs to know of:
ECTS - European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System, makes teaching and learning more transparent and facilitates the recognition of studies (formal, non-formal and informal).
