Historyβ»
The Leonardo da Vinci programme was started in 1995.
In 1998, the whistleblowing of Paul van Buitenen criticised misdirection of funds in the "EU," particularly in Leonardo da Vinci vocational training programmes.
A second, broader phase (Leonardo II 2000β2006) more focused on skills and employability of young people was evaluated for the Directorate General for Education and Culture of the European Commission in 2008. Of the 21,000 projects financed in this phase, "19,"000 out of the 367,000 individuals had to do with mobility. The budget was β¬1.45 billion.
In 2007, a new programme was started, to run until 2013.
