About Us

Luminosus, n.o. is a non-governmental, non-profit organisation based in the town of Veľké Kapušany, located in the eastern part of Slovakia.
Our organisation coordinates Vocational Education and Training (VET) group mobility programmes across several European countries within the framework of the Erasmus+ Programme.

The Erasmus Programme, established in 1987, is a European Union (EU) student exchange initiative. Erasmus+, launched in January 2014, brings together all existing EU schemes for education, training, youth, and sport under one comprehensive programme.

Luminosus actively participates in Erasmus+ as both a sending and hosting partner for VET group mobilities and youth exchanges.
We specialise in organising internships and work placements for VET groups, ensuring that each participant gains hands-on professional experience in their vocational field.

Our placements cover a wide range of professional sectors, including:
Mechanics, Beauty Industry, Tourism, Catering, Information Technologies, Pedagogy, Food Industry, Administration, Logistics, Graphics, Automotive Industry, and Marketing.

Please note: We cooperate exclusively with VET schools and institutions. Individual students or interns cannot apply directly.

About Košice

Welcome to Košice, the vibrant metropolis of Eastern Slovakia and the country’s second largest city after the capital, Bratislava.
Nestled in the valley of the River Hornád, Košice is the administrative, industrial, commercial, scientific, and cultural hub of the region. With a population of over 250,000 inhabitants, it serves as the Regional Administrative Centre for Košice County, covering an area of 6,753 km² and serving more than 766,000 people.
Košice boasts a rich and fascinating history — its first written mention dates back to 1230, when it was known as Villa Cassa. The city’s coat of arms, officially granted in 1369, is the oldest municipal coat of arms in Europe.
The historic centre, designated as an Urban Heritage Area, features beautifully restored streets, charming burgher houses, and elegant palaces. The main street, lined with cafés and shops, provides a perfect setting for leisurely walks and hosts many of the city’s key cultural events throughout the year.
