As members in the EQF AG, NCPs, ... Individual international experts (ETF, Scotland,
UK) Collaboration with EU countries – very
important: Poland, Austria
Region collaboration – very important SEE Network
SEE Network consists of: EU countries Non-EU countries
Common challenges: Inconsistency and confusion within systems and
in the region (old and new degrees) Common understanding of concepts LO / ECTS Comparability of degrees Involvement of all relevant stakeholders Raising awareness
SEE Network is a base for response to the above challenges
The role of the Network: Regular comparison of national systems Establish mechanisms for regular exchange of
experience, documents, tools (meetings, workshops, thematic conferences, internet portal)
The CoE provides expertise and support
Clear benefit for all countries in the region and EU.
Conclusions:
Internationalization is very important EQF/QFHE bodies EU countries and experts Countries and experts in the region SEE Network
Within the SEE Network – clear benefit for all countries in the region and EU
The CoE provides expertise and support Next meeting (2010) in Croatia (common
understandings, recognition, old-new degrees, ...)
