Date: 11th December 2020

Venue:  TEAMS Digital Platform

Organized By: National Erasmus+ Office

On December 11, the National Erasmus + Office conducted a monitoring visit of the VALEU-X Project, “Virtual Albanian European Universities Exchange” on the TEAMS digital platform. The VALEU-X project is one of the 10 projects granted in the 2020 Call, supported by the Erasmus + program “Capacity Building in Higher Education”.

The VALEU-X project consists of 9 partners, 6 of them are Albania HEIs as: Epoka University, European University of Tirana, University of Elbasan, University of Shkodra, University of Korça and University of Durrës. This project aims to add significant value to the teaching process in Albania by empowering academic staff with contemporary teaching competencies.

Although the project is in its first year of implementation, the impact it is creating on partner institutions due to the urgency of teaching on digital platforms has been high.

Some specific objectives of VALEU-X Prokjects are:

  • Qualification of academic staff at Albanian HEIs for innovative virtual teaching and learning settings.
  • Support Albanian HEIs in adopting and implementing effective ICT-based internationalisation at home activities and integrate Albanian HEIs in a global network for “Virtual Mobility”.
  • Qualification of administrative staff at Albanian HEIs on adopting and recognising Virtual/Blended Mobility as part of their institutional internationalisation strategy.
