A. INTRODUCTION
1. PURPOSE OF THE MOBILITY DATABASE:
to help coordinators in the management of scholarship of students and staff members.
to keep information on selected candidates activities, mobility tracks, credits earned,
amounts received etc.
to provide the coordinators with automated reports, which they need to send to the Agency
regularly.
to provide the Agency with statistics on mobility flows
2. DESCRIPTION OF THE DIFFERENT PHASES
Two important phases must be considered:
SUBMISSION PHASE: this is the period of the duration of the contract. When the course has started,
the coordinators can introduce and manage the individual mobility flows of each
student/scholar (dates, universities visited, type of tasks performed, etc.).
Coordinators can also fill in the fields with financial information (i.e number of
payments / the students received / the amounts paid / how many ECTS the
student acquired.)
POST- IMPLEMENTATION PHASE: this is the phase when no changes can be introduced in the
Mobility Database anymore; the consortium can only have a read only view of the
data.
3. INTERNET LINK - To connect to the website, use the following link:
https://eacea.ec.europa.eu/mobility/
4. HOW TO LOGIN Use your LOGIN name and your PASSWORD.
If you have login problems or questions, please contact Ms. Patricia Moreau
([email protected]) or the contact person in charge of your project, in
the Bilateral Cooperation Team. Please title your mail "Database 200xx-xxxx" (=
CHECK THESE DETAILS and inform the Agency of any mistakes identified.
- The fields identified as "Eligibility start" and "Eligibility end" correspond to the duration of the grant agreement signed between the Lead EU institution's legal representative and the Agency.
These dates cannot be modified by the consortium.
The fields identified as "Mobility start" and "Mobility end" correspond to the starting and
finishing dates of the eligibility period of your project.
ENTER the relevant "Mobility start" date and "Mobility end" date either
manually in the given entry fields or use the calendar option put at your
disposal TO ACTIVATE THE COURSE. These dates are (must be) the same as
the dates "Eligibility start" and "Eligibility end".
SAVE them (click on the "save dates" box).

C. STRUCTURE OF THE TOOL
3 Types of student levels are available: Vocational - Undergraduates and Master depending on
the level tackled by your project.(see Figure 2)
2 Types of funding sources are available:
"Main List": list of students funded by the EU Bilateral Cooperation Programme and "Non-Scholarships Holders list" (see Figure 2) for students who participate in the project's study programme and mobility but without EU grants
2 Types of category/origin of students are available:
- "EUROPEAN" students = home university is one of the EU partner institutions and - Partner Country students "AMERICAN" (or CANADIAN or ..) (see Figure 2) = incoming students from the Partner Country institutions
The structure is the following: VOCATIONAL
MAIN LIST
- EUROPE - PARTNER COUNTRY (USA-CANADA-AUSTRALIA-JAPAN-R. of Korea-N.Zealand)
NON-SCHOLARSHIP HOLDERS - EUROPE
UNDERGRADUATES
MAIN LIST - EUROPE - PARTNER COUNTRY (see above)

D. STUDENT SECTION
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE STUDENT LISTS
Next to each of the lists you have a sign (+) : this is a hyperlink that allows you to display the details of the
list and to manage (i.e. include, edit, replace, move or delete) the candidates (see Figure 2).
When you have selected the list you want to work with (you want to display), click on the
(+) hyperlink.
For each of the categories available, the table (Figure 2) a default quota (of EUROPEAN / AMERICAN etc.) has been encoded by the Agency. This default quota number is totally arbitrary: please ask the relevant Project Officer to allow you to encode a bigger number in case of you need to.
The student section also displays the number of students already introduced compared with the
maximum number of students that can be included thanks to the default quota (in the example presented
in Figure 2: 5 Undergraduate students out of a maximum of 30 have been introduced in for the
EUROPEAN Category).
It also includes a hyperlink "Add to selected category" allowing you to add directly a student to the
category concerned.This action will lead you to a screen similar to the one displayed in Figure 3 (the
example shown here corresponds to the “Main list”).
Figure 3
In this example 5 EU Undergraduate students have been encoded.
EACEA MOBILITY USER MANUAL – BILATERAL COOPERATION PROJECTS – OCT 2011 Page 7
A click on "add to this category" will allow you to encode the data of another student (see Figure 4)
At the bottom of the page the Export list to PDF | Export list to Excel hyperlink texts allow you to display
(either in PDF or Excel format) and print the list per category.
2. NON-SCHOLARSHIP HOLDERS LISTS
The objective is to obtain at the end of the project the total number of the participating students. The data
of this list are also gathered for statistical purposes. You can indicate in the field "Comments" the type
and origin of a possible external scholarship he/she is receiving, if any.
3. MANAGEMENT OF STUDENTS' LISTS
As displayed in Figure 3 above, the list for each of the categories available are the following:
• key details1
of the students registered in the category (Family Name/First Name, Gender,
Nationality, University of origin, Residence)
• active hyperlinks allowing you to view/modify the data of already registered students by clicking on:
- View: A full view of the student selected with all the data related to him/her (see screen displayed below under Chapter C.3 – Figure 4)
- Request: not to be used by Bilateral Cooperation Programme
- Modify: Possibility to modify the data of the student selected
- Move: not to be used by Bilateral Cooperation Programme
- Report Data: see Chapter F
- Mobility: very important hyperlink: This option allows you to manage the mobility
track of the student - (see Chapter D)
- Bulk mobility: This option allows you to introduce mass mobility flows.
The students foreseen to follow the fully identical mobility track can be selected
together with the tick box and encoded in one go. The link bulk select "all" has to
be activated.
- Delete: In case you want to delete a student

5. ENCODING THE MOBILITY OF THE STUDENT
You may encode the different mobility of a student by clicking on the hyperlink "Mobility" tab (see
figure 3)
The following screen will then appear:
This screen allows you to introduce, for each student, the start and end date of the mobility periods,
the relevant host institutions and the type of activity carried out. Even if you encode the start / end dates of the first mobility on the personal data page (Figure 4) ,
please note that you HAVE TO encode the start / end dates of the first mobility again on this page (Figure 5).
1. Start date / end date: of one mobility of the student

Grant paid per month*: please encode the grant according to the rules of the programme
Travel* ; encode the travel grant according to the rules of the programme
3. Total scholarship paid*: = (duration in months x grant paid per month) + travel
EX: Student X goes from 01 Sept 2011 to 21 June 2012 (9.75 months)
Progress report of 30.11.2011: the coordinator has paid
1000 for travel
3000 for the mobility (first payment to the student)
Total to encode: 4000
In the next progress report/final report you will encode
