Outgoing STA mobility

Objectives of the mobility

The purpose of STA mobility (Staff Mobility for Teaching) is conducting classes for students of a foreign partner institution in the number of minimum 8 didactic hours during the mobility lasting 7 days or less. In the case of longer mobility the number of teaching hours will be proportionally increased.

During the combined STA/STT mobility, the minimum number of didactic hours to be completed at a partner university is 4 for the mobility lasting 7 days or less.

The teaching mobility in a foreign university from a programme country can last from 2 days to 2 months. In the case of mobility to the university from partner countries it can last from 5 days to 2 months.

The STA mobility for academic staff can only be organised to the partner universities which have signed Erasmus+ inter-institutional agreements with UTA and received Erasmus Charter for Higher Education (ECHE) valid for 2021-2027 years.

Before departure

Insurance

Each participant is obliged to insure himself/herself independently before the mobility.

The insurance covering the duration of stay at the receiving institution MUST include:

health insurance and insurance against accidents for a duration of travel and stay at the receiving institution, including the costs of transportation to the home country;
liability insurance covering at least damages caused by the participant at the place of teaching/training.

IMPORTANT! The insurance must cover the costs of a body’s transportation to its home country in case of death.

The insurance is for a mobility participant and the participant will take advantage of the insurance abroad if necessary. The University doesn’t insure the mobility participants in any additional way.
It is the participant’s decision about the scope and amount of the insurance and the above-mentioned are the minimum requirements imposed by the Erasmus+ Programme.

if the participant is insured in the National Health Fund (NFZ), the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) issued by the NFZ guarantees the insurance of treatment costs and the right to receive healthcare on the territory of the EU and countries participating in the Erasmus+ Programme. Details at the NFZ website.
insurance against accidents and liability insurance is available at any insurance company.
