Do you know about our OLS Community Stories project? This is the page where Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps participants share how the Online Language Support (OLS) has been very useful for their language learning journey. It’s how we welcome feedback, including through personal stories like the ones submitted for the OLS Video Contest.
Take a look at our newest installation which highlights the videos some of you created. The videos can be found at this link: https://academy.europa.eu/courses/ols-community-stories/
After you enjoy the videos, tell us your thoughts here!

Noooo, I’m not talking about The O’Jays song
But rather that the EU’s currency, the Euro is changing! Today, the European Commission announced that the European Central Bank (ECB) has launched a survey looking for themes for the future euro banknote. Fill out this survey and help them decide how the new euro should look. What would you like to see? Let your opinions and creativity shine!
Thanks for getting all caught up with a few cool things to explore in our OLS community and our galaxy.
Happy stargazing, friends!
