Pre-Conference Workshop: Towards a Fair Future: Align Your Admission Procedures with International Standards

Session Information

This workshop aims to assist higher education institutions in evaluating their admission and recognition procedures against international agreed standards as laid down in the UNESCO conventions. The workshop will focus on the Spotlight self-assessment tool, a hands-on instrument developed to systematically review compliance with the principles of the Lisbon Recognition Convention. Spotlight is a relatively new tool and highly relevant for the TAICEP (potential) membership and community. Its initial use has enhanced transparency, fairness, and consistency in credential evaluation procedures. This workshop will provide an introduction to the tool and how to use it and will provide step-by-step guidance to participants who will make a solid start with the tool at the conference. Offering this as a workshop has the benefit that institutions can exchange practices with each other in a systematic way and create innovations by learning from each other.


*****Please note: Pre-conference workshops are held concurrently, so please do not sign up for more than one. They are also an additional charge and are not included in the conference registration fee.

1) Learn to use this self-assessment tool in evaluating your admission and recognition procedures. 2) Identify Best Practices: recognize effective strategies and common pitfalls in admission and recognition procedures. 3) Improve Institutional Procedures: ideas to integrate self-assessment findings into institutional quality assurance and improvement initiatives. 4) Get more in-depth knowledge about UNESCO recognition conventions and their relevance to our profession.
