The goal of the workshop is to come to guidelines & good practices for higher education institutions when awarding joint degrees.
During the workshop there will be a presentation of how higher education institutions deal with awarding joint degrees (design & administration) and how they deal with recognition issues.
The workshop offers ENIC-NARICs an opportunity to further exchange ENIC-NARIC experiences and to discuss a draft recommendation for higher education institutions. This recommendation should enable institutions to facilitate the recognition of their qualifications. Registration. Travel guide. Your hosts.
