Dec. 17 (UPI) -- U.K. students and others can learn and train abroad as part of the European Union's Erasmus+ program starting in 2027 amid a U.K.-E.U. relations reset.

The Erasmus+ program accepts students from all backgrounds and enables them to study and train while on the continent, the U.K. government announced in a press release Wednesday.

The program also enables students from member nations of the European Union to study and train in the United Kingdom.

"Joining Erasmus+ is a huge win for our young people, breaking down barriers and widening horizons to ensure everyone, from every background, has the opportunity to study and train abroad," said Nick Thomas-Symonds, the United Kingdom's E.U. Relations minister.
