Student and staff exchange
Regarding student and staff exchange, a partnership in ETEN provides members with an easy way of making agreements about exchanges. The personal relations between ECOs and the confidence that results from those relationships make exchange agreements or programmes function very smoothly and individually.

Good practice
A full ETEN partnership gives members an unlimited possibility to send staff to the annual TIG-based Conferences, where a wide range of academic seminars offer reports and presentations of papers introducing national and international projects of interest for staff involved in teacher and educator education.
A TIG membership demands a certain degree of participation and support from the participating institution to give staff members engaged in a TIG financial and moral support. Under the right conditions ETEN is able to provide an exceptional possibility to work across borders with research and development on an academic level in favour of both the participating university and its educational efforts and the staff member in charge of the TIG membership.
Students can benefit from the TIGs through international courses generated as one of the results of the research and development work of a TIG.
