The program is free of charge, but the costs of travel and accommodation need to be covered by the participants. The University of Bergen will reserve rooms for everyone in good time at one of Bergen's hotels. The participants will however have to cover the costs of the room. One meal a day will be included in the program.

Please note that participants need to apply for Erasmus Staff mobility Grant at their home university.
