Amounts and costs
- Catalogue budget
- PLN 8,000,000
Figure as listed by the provider. Whether it is the total allocation or a per-project cap is unverified unless a reviewed condition says so.
- Call allocation
- PLN 8,000,000
Call-wide allocation; it is not an individual award amount.
- Eligible cost
- The apprenticeship unit rate includes the student’s cash benefit (stipendium) at 80% of the minimum hourly wage, employer/tutor remuneration during the placement, necessary consumables/tools, occupational safety training, required medical exams, meals/lodging where justified, travel, logs/materials and accident insurance. The student stipend is part of the unit-cost bundle, not a grant salary rate for an employee.
- Eligible cost limit
- 15 %
Combined cross-financing expenditure may not exceed 15% of project expenditure; indirect costs attributable to cross-financing are included in the cap.
- Funding intensity, maximum
- 90 %

- Unit contribution
- PLN 34
One clock-hour of a type 1 student apprenticeship for one student (student-hour), subject to the stated exception and the call’s indexation rule; this is a project cost contribution, not a staff hourly wage.
- Own contribution, minimum
- 10 %
Share of eligible project expenditure; 9.99% or lower is expressly insufficient after rounding.
