Join the final EDLab webinar “The road to a European Degree”

The EDLab project is coming to an end and the team invites all Arqus members interested in European joint programmes to participate in its final webinar on “The road ahead to a European Degree: lessons learned from the European Degree Label Institutional Laboratory”. The event will take place online on 3^rd April at 10:00 CEST.

The main purpose of this event (4^th webinar of the project series) is to provide an overview of EDLab’s activities in the mapping of joint programmes against the draft criteria for the European degree label, the issuing of pilot label certificates to students from identified joint programmes, and the lessons learnt from this combined exercise in formulating recommendations on reworked criteria and a potential future labelling exercise. Finally, the webinar will provide insight into the road ahead for the European Degree, as envisioned by the European Commission in the Higher Education Package, allowing for Q&A.
