Online Student Agreement
The aim of the project is to give students the opportunity to prepare their learning contracts in an online system, which then allows them to work with the coordinators of the home and host higher education institutions to finalise, approve and sign the document online. This process therefore translates a paper-based workflow that relies on timely mail deliveries for signature purposes into an online system that saves students a lot of time in preparing for their studies abroad and achieves a higher degree of flexibility and efficiency in reviewing the apprenticeship contract. The online software will also enable higher education institutions to consistently design apprenticeship contract management workflows to make the approval and administration process more efficient, giving employees time to work on other activities in the field of international relations or improve the quality of credit mobility. The first draft e-learning agreement took place in 2015-2017, a second project lasted until 2019 and a third project is now underway. For more information, see www.learning-agreement.eu/start/. When organising credit mobility, students and university staff must conclude trilateral learning agreements, which form the basis for the recognition of academic qualifications acquired abroad. According to the PRIME survey conducted by the Erasmus Student Network in 2010/11, apprenticeship contracts are a cornerstone and at the same time a major obstacle to the proper organisation of credit mobility. In fact, the interlocutors are not clearly defined, the information needed to draw up the agreements is rarely available online and the possibility of students changing their apprenticeship contract after arriving at the host universities is 75%. In the same survey, some national LLP organizations proposed to develop an online tool to prepare, approve and review learning agreements in an online environment, and this is exactly what this project intends to do.
Online teaching brings additional responsibilities for students and faculty. To ensure a quality educational experience, we ask that you read and comply with these responsibilities set forth in this Agreement. I understand that the decision to complete my MSSW through the Columbia School of Social Work`s online program involves technological requirements that I am responsible for meeting, and that not doing so has a negative impact on my own education and the experience of my classmates, because they could be affected by technology that malfunctions from others. I agree with the following troubleshooting standards: I have read and understood the technology requirements listed below:. .
