The PACAgro project kick-off meting

The kick-off meeting of the TEMPUS project, Development of Public Accreditation of Agricultural programs in Russia (project  no. 543902-TEMPUS-1-2013-SK-TEMPUS-SMGR), took place at the Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra, Slovakia in the period of May 6-7, 2014. The aim of the meeting was to introduce project partners from Russia, Estonia, Lithuania and Spain and  as well as the negotiation and approval of project activities and the division of tasks. The main objective of the project is to introduce the principles of the Bologna process in the Russian system of quality assurance in higher education, training standards and procedures for the accreditation of public agricultural programmes, the establishment of a public  accreditation agency and its incorporation in Russian and international academic space. The project is focused not only on the development of accreditation standards and procedures, but also on developing guidance materials and organization of workshops for different target groups. We are very glad that the meeting was attended by the National Tempus contact point Mgr. Katarina Smalova who provided us with valuable information and advice.
