Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the Bologna Process is to promote the international mobility of students, graduates and professionals within a European higher education area by 2010, by making it easier for qualifications to be recognised throughout Europe and therefore for them to gain employment. The Bologna Declaration, signed by higher education ministers from 29 European countries in 1999, seeks to achieve this through the creation of a common framework for degrees based on the use of credits. This publication contains the proceedings of a seminar held, in Lisbon in April 2002, to discuss key issues involved in the development of policies which will help realise the European higher education area.
