A powerful element in the activities of Mímis
Development and partnership projects play an important role in the activities of Mímis-símenntunar. The projects are both domestic and international and are carried out in collaboration with a wide range of companies, institutions and funds that support further education and adult education.
Partners and sponsors
Domestic partners and sponsors
Mímir participates in various national projects funded by the main funds for further education, including:
The Continuing Education Fund
Development Fund for Immigration Affairs
In addition, Rannís, on behalf of the Ministry of Education and Children's Affairs, awards grants to approved educational providers for Icelandic language teaching. This collaboration enables us to develop a diverse and effective educational programme that meets the needs of people across the country.
International collaborative projects
Internationally, Mímir participates in projects run by:
Erasmus+ and Nordplus
The projects aim, on the one hand, to enhance the competence of the target groups of further education and, on the other hand, to support the continuing education and professional development of Mímis' staff. Study and promotional visits from foreign parties to Mímis have also been on the increase, creating valuable opportunities for collaboration and the sharing of knowledge and experience.
