Description Title : Development internationalization strategy and recognition model Work package type : Development Description : This WP aims to develop a recognition model for Higher Education institutions in BH for practicing fair recognition according to the principles of the Lisbon Recognition Convention, its subsidiary documents, latest EAR HEI Manual and the UNESCO Recommendation on the Recognition of Studies and Qualifications in Higher Education. The aim is also the development of a strategy for internationalization of all partner universities taking into consideration the entity/ national situation, diversity and priorities of all partner universities. Strengthening of Internationalisation in B&H Higher Education WP2

Description Internationalization strategies and measures will be in accordance with Mobility Strategy 2020 for the EHEA. Mobility Strategy 2020 obliges all Higher Education institutions in EHEA to create a strategy and measures (indicators) for internationalization. Strengthening of Internationalisation in B&H Higher Education WP2

Tasks Education of B&H partners for strategic planning and developing indicators, and recognition model, Development of recognition model, Development 8 internationalisation strategies for partner universities, Development internationalisation measures/ indicators for 8 partner universities, Comparative analysis of all created documents within this WP among BH partners. Strengthening of Internationalisation in B&H Higher Education WP2

Related assumptions and risks Assumptions : recognition model should be related to the European model, BH partners should be trained to develop a strategy and indicators, strategies should be related to indicators, readiness to comparative analysis of created documents. Risks : mismatching recognition model with the European model, incoherence strategy with indicators. Strengthening of Internationalisation in B&H Higher Education WP2

Outcome 2.1. Title : Workshop for developing recognition model, internationalization strategy and indicators Type : training material, event, report Description : The main objective of this WP is the training of BH project partners on the essential elements of models for the recognition of qualifications, the development, implementation and control strategy of internationalization and indicators. Later on, the trained personnel will play a role at their institutions as coordinators of the strategies, indicators and recognition models. Given that in BH there are no recognition model, strategy and internationalization indicators, their development and implementation will be crucial for the improvement and internationalization processes in BH and the process of recognition of qualifications (in accordance with guidelines of ministries). Strengthening of Internationalisation in B&H Higher Education 2.1.

Outcome 2.1. This workshop is the input for other activities within this WP. The basic inputs for this activity are the transfer of experiences of EU partners to BH partners and the will of BH partners to gain additional knowledge and skills. Quality training materials offered by the EU partners will be a very important factor. The workshop will last for five working days (Mostar). All partners will participate in this event.

Outcome 2.2. Title : Development of recognition model for BH HEIs Type : report, service/ product Description : The main goal of this outcome is the development of the recognition model for BH Higher Education institutions and the harmonization of procedures for recognition of foreign higher education qualifications at HEI in BH (educaiton/ role of ministries and CIP). Newly created model should be in line with existing European model, in order to achieve alignment and harmonization of the BH legislation pertaining to the recognition of the European legislation. This model will offer introduction of recognition, recognition process, qualification types, information instruments, mobility, and will be important tool for the process of internationalization and recognition of qualifications. Strengthening of Internationalisation in B&H Higher Education 2.2.

Outcome 2.2. The development of this document and compliance with it is a condition for joining the EHEA and EAR. The main input for this activity is the analysis of the literature and analysis of the existing practices related to the recognition of qualifications. The writing of this document will last a total of 20 working days. WP Leader will be responsible for the coordination and implementation of activities. All partners will participate in the implementation of this activity. Due date : Strengthening of Internationalisation in B&H Higher Education 2.2.

Outcome 2.3. Title : Development of internationalization strategy at all partner universities Type : report, service/ product Description : The main goal of this activity is the development of strategies for internationalization and promotion of mobility in accordance with the cultural context of the institution including the participation of all relevant stakeholders (students, teachers and administration). Each BH university should develop their own strategy or upgrade the existing strategy for internationalisation containing the basic elements that would allow greater internationalisation of the institution and the mobility of both staff and institutions. Strengthening of Internationalisation in B&H Higher Education 2.3.

Outcome 2.3. The main reason for conducting this activity is that the accreditation of HEI internationalization has been evaluated as one of the worst segments. The basic inputs for this activity are the trained staff in terms of strategy development, different available literature on strategic planning (to be provided by the WP leaders), and the existing system of strategic planning. All BH universities will be involved in the implementation of this activity. The total duration of this activity is 25 working days.

Outcome 2.4. Title : Development of internationalization measures/ indicators at all partner universities Type : report, service/ product Description : The main goal of this activity is the development of indicators or measures that will illustrate in detail the set strategic objectives which will be linked to the strategy of internationalization of BH universities. Each partner institution should develop its own set of indicators of internationalization which will be linked to the strategy. Indicators of internationalisation are the key factor that needs to point out and monitor the implementation of the strategic goals of activity 2.3.
