Conditions18

Typed facts extracted from the source documents by Scindu's grant-data review. Each value keeps its own conditions. Unknown means unstated, not zero or unlimited.

Applicant restriction
An applicant may submit at most one application regardless of being leader or partner. A BCU governing body may be partner in multiple projects only if each project concerns a different vocational school. For JST the cap applies to the eligible entity across its organizational units. For Warsaw, the cap applies to organizational units and districts, not to the City itself as a JST.
Applicant type
Eligible applicant classes listed in the call are science and education institutions, public administration, social organizations, religious associations and enterprises; exclusions and further call conditions apply.
Eligible geography
Recipients are vocational/continuing education pupils and learners, juvenile employees attending vocational schools, and supported vocational schools/education institutions. Activities must be delivered in the Warsaw Capital Region (RWS).
Eligible project scope
Comprehensive vocational-school development may cover practical competencies through BCU; occupational skill validation/preparation for qualifications; learning validation/certification; school–employer cooperation for internships/practices; key and universal skills for future jobs (green, digital, Industry 4.0); vocational-student apprenticeships; and supplementary practice-room equipment outside BCU without duplication of specifically named equipment funding.
Other condition
The call allocation is EUR 2,300,000 EFS+, converted at ECB rate PLN 4.3653 on 29 September 2026. For this region, the regulation states EFS+ PLN 10 040 190,00 and national budget PLN 3 012 057,00. Allocation is a call pool and may increase.
Other condition
Applications are accepted 23 October through 20 November 2026, closing at 23:59 on the final day.
Other condition
BCU-supported activities must use the center’s instructional facilities/capacity; this is complementary to school vocational education. If applicant/partner is the BCU operating body it may be used as a project resource (including personnel); otherwise participation is through partnership. Direct participant-support costs specifically include classes, staff remuneration, teaching/consumable materials, validation and certification. No double public funding of listed costs.
Other condition
Call FEMA.07.02-IP.01-133/26 for Warsaw Capital Region; the linked operative regulation is the current version 1.0 dated 2 October 2026.
Other condition
At the central detail-page rendered-DOM capture at 2026-10-23T10:01:22.892Z, the status badge read AKTUALNY and the listed application window was 23 October through 20 November 2026. This is a capture-time observation, not a claim about status after that capture.
Other condition
Direct costs are based on actual incurred expenses and must be necessary, eligible, rational and efficient under the applicable EFS+ eligibility rules; acceptance at award does not guarantee subsequent reimbursement.
Other condition
Indirect flat rate is applied to direct costs: 25% at direct costs up to PLN 830,000; 20% above PLN 830,000 through PLN 1,740,000; 15% above PLN 1,740,000 through PLN 4,550,000; 10% above PLN 4,550,000.
Other condition
Applications must state personnel engagement form and estimated workload (FTE/hours); proposed pay must be justified against beneficiary practice for analogous roles/qualifications, labour law or public statistics. No salary rate or ceiling is specified here.
Other condition
No project-level maximum grant or total project-cost ceiling was located in the reviewed call regulation. Do not derive a per-project cap by dividing the call-wide allocation by expected projects.
Other condition
A project must end no later than 31 December 2029; the reviewed regulation does not prescribe a universal minimum or fixed duration.
Other condition
Project personnel includes people engaged under employment and qualifying volunteers; a beneficiary sole proprietor and collaborating persons may also qualify. Civil-law contractors are generally external service providers rather than project personnel. In public schools, external education services are supplementary and are allowed only where class characteristics do not require a qualified teacher. Service hours and expected completion time must be budgeted.
Other condition
For RWS projects, the call-specific access criterion requires student apprenticeships for at least 50% of participating technical-secondary and first-level vocational-school students. This is a project composition/access rule, not an employment requirement.
Other condition
The call regulation’s footnote states PLN 33.23 per student apprenticeship clock-hour and a trainee cash benefit equal to 80% of the minimum hourly wage. A separate Ministry notice dated 12 January 2026 states an indexed rate of PLN 34.22 for calls announced after that date. Because this October 2026 call’s operative regulation still prints PLN 33.23, the applicable rate is an unresolved source conflict; confirm with the managing authority before budgeting. Neither figure is treated here as a selected final rate.
Other condition
The governing EFS+ guideline defines the apprenticeship unit rate for one hour for one student and says it includes the student cash benefit (80% minimum hourly wage), required consumables, pre-placement safety training and required medical examinations. This is a cost settlement unit and trainee benefit, not a staff salary rate.

Personnel and services3
  • Other role

    Service the grant can fund

    Budget must state substantive service hours and expected service completion time; procurement, market-price, call eligibility and school-law conditions still apply. No provider qualifications, fixed unit rate, headcount, or service volume is stated by this call.

  • Other role

    Staff cost the grant can fund

    Gross salary plus employer-borne costs, and project-related bonuses/additions consistent with internal rules, may be eligible. Application must show form of engagement, workload and justified pay basis. No job-specific qualification, headcount, FTE, contract duration or salary amount is specified by the call. Civil-law contracts are generally service procurements, not project personnel.

  • Project management

    Budget estimate rule only

    These functions are funded through the applicable indirect flat-rate pool, not as individual direct salary claims. The flat rate is based on direct costs and varies by value tier; it is a pooled budget percentage, not a compensation rate.
