The Turing Scheme is the UK government’s programme that provides funding for international opportunities in education and training across the world. It supports Global Britain by providing an opportunity for UK organisations from the higher education, further education, vocational education & training and schools’ sectors to offer their students, learners and pupils life-changing experiences to study or work abroad. In doing so, The Turing Scheme unlocks life-changing experiences across the world for the UK’s pupils, students and learners. Schools, colleges and higher education providers apply for funding for projects on behalf of their pupils, students and learners. If you are based in one of the aforementioned organisations, you may be eligible to take part. It doesn’t matter if you are a full or part time student.
Develop New Skills and Experience Working Internationally
Participating in a Turing Scheme placement will give you the chance to develop new skills, gain vital international experience and boost your employability. You can also develop professional practice, a wide range of soft skills, as well as language skills. By choosing The Turing Scheme, you will build relationships with international peers and gain fresh ideas along with a better understanding of other cultures.
Talk to Your College or University
Your college or university will be able to provide you with information about how they are using the Turing Scheme to give you opportunities to study and work abroad, including which countries you can visit and how to get involved.
The Turing Scheme Programme Guide for the 2023 to 2024 academic year is now available to read and download from the official website. The Guide contains important information on what overseas learning and training opportunities The Turing Scheme’s funding can be used for, eligibility, grant rates, the application process and how applications are assessed.
There are no major changes to the scope or operation of the successful Turing Scheme this year. They have, however, clarified some of the eligibility criteria to ensure the guide is as clear as possible. A list of changes can be found on page 7 of the Programme Guide.
