Teacher training funding in Portugal: PESSOAS 2030 applications open until July 31
Portugal's PESSOAS 2030 programme is accepting applications to fund continuous training for teachers, trainers and other education professionals, with a deadline of July 31, 2026.
Apply / Learn moreAnyone working in education and training in Portugal has a few more weeks to claim European support. The PESSOAS 2030 programme has extended the deadline of its call to fund continuous training for teachers, trainers and other education and training professionals: applications can be submitted until 6pm on July 31, 2026.
Who can apply for PESSOAS 2030 funding?
The call targets entities in the education and training sector that run continuous training for these professionals — the precise eligibility requirements are set out in the notice published on the PESSOAS 2030 portal. If you represent a school, training centre or sector organisation, it’s worth confirming your fit before building the application.
How and when do you submit?
Submission is electronic, through the Portugal 2030 platform, until 6pm on July 31, 2026. As with any EU funding call, the golden rule is not to leave it to the last day: the forms require documentation that takes time to gather, and the platform tends to clog up near the deadline.
It’s one more deadline in a July full of them — see also the support for equality NGOs, with applications open until July 17. EU funds don’t fall from the sky, but this month they’re passing right by the door: grab them while the window is open.
