Why take part?

The Turing Scheme enables UK organisations to offer experiences abroad for their participants to develop personally and academically. It also supports schools, colleges and higher education institutions to build on and forge new relationships across the world. 

Receiving funding to study or carry out a work placement abroad will help participants develop transferable skills, gain international experience and broaden their horizons. They can also develop a wide range of soft skills, language skills and a better understanding of other cultures. It will also be a great addition to their CV, helping them to stand out in the global job market and boost their employability.

Participants can study or work anywhere in the world, subject to Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) travel advice.
