A staff training week in Barcelona
From your first morning to the certificate on Friday, here's how a typical week works.
From enquiry to confirmed place
- You write with the course and the week. We reply within two working days.
- We send the pre-registration confirmation and the documents a KA1 application needs.
- You sign up and confirm. We send an acceptance letter if your institution needs one.
- We set out the fee, the dates and the invoicing in writing. That confirmation is the contract.
The five days
Classes run Monday to Friday mornings. You choose 20 or 25 hours a week when you book. Courses run one week; the two-week AI & ICT Intensive runs 50 hours across two adjacent weeks.

Your first morning
You go to the course location we confirmed when you signed up — Gràcia or Barceloneta, not necessarily the office.
Course materials are handed out on the first day. Groups are small, usually with participants from several European countries.
What to bring
Bring a laptop for the AI and ICT courses — you'll be trying the tools on your own material. For other subjects a notebook is enough, unless your trainer asks for something specific.
Lunch and afternoons
There's no canteen, so lunch is on your own. Both course areas have cafés and restaurants within a few minutes' walk.
Two afternoons are the week's cultural activities, and someone from the team goes with the group. The other three are yours.
Documents we provide
We can provide these documents when your institution needs them. Your certificate of attendance is issued on the final day of the course.
- Invitation letterFor grant agreements and travel.
- Pre-registration confirmationFor KA1 applications.
- Acceptance letterSent once a place is confirmed, where one is needed.
- Course description and programmeWith the contact hours and what the week covers.
- Certificate of attendanceIssued on the final day.
- Europass Mobility supportCourse information, dates and confirmation.
- InvoiceFor your grant records.
If something changes
Cancel more than 14 days before the course and we refund the fee in full. At 14 days or less we refund half and hold the rest as credit towards another week, at any SpainBcn destination. We don't apply that if you have to cancel because of illness, a family emergency, lost funding or a problem at your institution.
Changing a participant's name, moving to another week or switching course costs nothing.
