Avrupa Yükseköğretim Alanında Tanıma’ya İlişkin Hedefler

Abstract

The aim of the research is to determine objectives of recognition in the EHEA between 1998-2018 and to reveal aspects open to development. Data of the study was obtained through document analysis of communiques adopted in Ministerial Conferences. Results of the research: adoption of three cycle system; comparable and readable degrees; the use of EAR Manual; mutual recognition are important. Implementation of LRC helps to facilitate recognition of qualifications in higher education. Recently, a Global Convention for recognition of qualifications in HE was adopted. Use of Diploma Supplement; a close cooperation between quality assurance and recognition networks are encouraged. ENIC-NARIC Networks are necessary for fair and efficient recognition. ECTS boosts external recognition. Quality assurance and accreditation are closely associated with recognition. Recognition in higher education and its tools are substantial in terms of increasing mobility, providing transparency, enhancing employability. Automatic recognition; recognition of prior non-formal and informal learning need to be improved in HE systems through revised national legislations.
