Digital Marketing For Staff & Educators
Erasmus+ funds for teachers
Teachers, head teachers, principals and other school staff can enhance their professional development in a European dimension environment through Erasmus+. Erasmus+ helps to cover course fees, travel costs, subsistence costs and preparation costs for those in the educational field interested in continuing their professional development and other training under the EU programme for Education, Training, Youth and Sport.
At FU International Academy, our Teacher Development courses are eligible for Erasmus+ funding and we offer full service and organization of your stay here in Tenerife. This includes completion of the necessary paperwork required for Erasmus+ projects, as well as airport transportation, accommodation either in shared apartments or one of our partnered hotels and, during the working day, participants can eat in our own cafeteria at FU Café.
This program is thoroughly designed for beginners interested in gaining insights in the field of digital marketing. Here, teachers learn how to improve their schools’ websites and create unique content to help promote their schools on social media.

Daily seminars focus on a wide variety of topics including basic and niche marketing concepts, website optimization, content marketing, social media marketing (SMM), search engine optimization (SEO) and more.
Teachers have 30 hours of specialized training where they will learn how to implement the most relevant online tools to help boost online platforms where parents, students and partner institutions interact with one another. Teachers will gain the necessary experience to understand the importance of a digital presence while putting into practice the knowledge gained during seminars as guided and evaluated by our professional team of online marketers.

Very useful and professional training
We highly appreciate participating in the course because we have learned a lot. Very useful professional training with a very competent experienced trainer in the field. We also enjoyed organization and school facilities. We would recommend this course to all who want to have competent knowledge in online marketing and want to be successful in working life.
Informative and Captivating Lecturers
We have just come back from an intensive 5-day teacher training course about online marketing at FU International Academy Tenerife and we all agree that the course, the teachers as well as the whole experience were amazing.
Even though we were teachers of different subjects with different levels of prior knowledge about the topic, we all found the lectures informative and captivating, yet easy enough to follow. All the lectures were supported by well-prepared presentations, real-life examples and first-hand experience as all the teachers from FU International Academy also do what they teach.
We were also extremely pleased with the overall organization of our stay in Tenerife. We worked hard and learned a lot, but at the same time, we had enough time to explore the island and socialize.
