  12. Bologna Process “The overarching aim of the Bologna Process is to create a European Higher Education Area (EHEA) that promotes mobility; attracts students and staff from Europe as well as from other parts of the world; and is internationally competitive. It aims to do this by facilitating greater comparability and compatibility between the diverse higher education systems and institutions across Europe and by enhancing their quality.”

  13. Bologna Process • Cycles • First cycle: Bachelor’s Degree • Second cycle: Master’s Degree • Third cycle: Doctorate • Each cycle associated with a set of descriptors, the so-called Dublin Descriptors • European Credit Transfer System • First Cycle: 180-240 ECTS • Second Cycle: 60-120 ECTS • Third Cycle: n ECTS

European Qualifications Framework The development of the European Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning (EQF) commenced in 2004 in response to requests from Member States, the social partners and other stakeholders for a common reference tool to increase the transparency of qualifications.

  16. Internationalisation Standards Market Perspective

  17. Global Education Market Education as a Service Institutional Strategies Cross-border supply, or overseas provision Franchising of programmes of study Provision of education at distance using electronic means. Consumption abroad Student mobility across borders for the purposes of education Commercial presence abroad Establishment of campuses abroad by institutions • Single European Act (1986) • European Union is area for free movement of goods, persons, services and capital. • World Trade Organisation General Agreement on Trade in Services (1995) • Education is a service that can be traded like any other • EU Services Directive (2006) • Education services can be provided outside of the national context within which they were designed

  18. Transnational Education British Council Transnational Higher Education (TNE) is defined as any higher education provision (including distance education programmes) available in more than one country. Students are studying in a country (host country) different from the one in which the awarding institution is based (home country). TNE includes many different delivery modes, such as franchising, branch campuses, twinning and distance learning arrangements. - ENQA

  19. Transnational Provision What makes their degrees so portable is the confidence generated by rigorous quality control – the work is marked in the UK so that the same standards apply globally. - Janet Beer, VC Oxford Brookes (2013)

  20. Transnational Education "institutions ensure that students enrolled on collaborative and transnational programmes which lead to awards of an Irish awarding body, receive an equivalent learning experience to that of students studying at their primary campus in Ireland" “Ensure that the programmes they deliver across borders and in their home country are of comparable quality and that they also take into account the cultural and linguistic sensitivities of the receiving country.” “Quality Assurance must Travel”
