PLOTEUS (Portal on Learning Opportunities Throughout Europe) was set up in order to respond to the conclusions of the Lisbon and Stockholm European Councils (March 2000, March 2001), which invited the European Commission and Member States to create a Europe-wide service providing information on jobs and learning opportunities.

The purpose of PLOTEUS, just like that of EURES, its counterpart, is to facilitate the free movement of European citizens by providing them the necessary information.

This portal aims to help students, job seekers, workers, parents, guidance counsellors and teachers to find information about studying in Europe. It contains information on about 30 countries in different languages and will allow you to find all the relevant information about lifelong learning in Europe:

Learning and training opportunities;
education and training systems;
exchange programmes and grants;
mobility in another European country.

PLOTEUS is managed by Directorate General for Education and Culture of the European Commission with the collaboration of the National Resources Centres for Vocational Guidance (Euroguidance)
