ABOUT THE PROJECT
The RecoNow project aims at improving and increasing the quality of student mobility within Middle Eastern and European higher education systems. The project tackles poorrecognition of foreign qualifications as one of the main challenges that hinder international student mobility. Specific expertise in the credential evaluation field, access to official, comprehensive and focused information on different HE systems, study programmes, institutions and their recognition procedures, are among the key issues to be improved in order to guarantee smooth recognition procedures and to foster cross-border student mobility.
This is the target of the RecoNow project, that runs from December 2013 until May 2016 in the framework of the Tempus Programme.

RESULTS
The RecoNow project activities will lead in the long run to the improvement of recognition and accreditation of foreign qualifications of students that studied abroad, especially in the framework of mobility for study within Middle Eastern and European higher education systems.
During the project life, the partners worked together in order to: foster access to official and comprehensive information on different HE systems, encourage the application of theLisbon Recognition Convention procedures and of the Bologna Mobility Tools, implement good practices and methodologies for smooth recognition of foreign diplomas and transcripts.
The main project outputs are presented during the project's final conferences in Jordan and Italy. Among these, National Reports on the education systems in Jordan and Palestine have been developed by the project partners. The Reports describe Jordanian and Palestinian Higher Education Institutions, their programmes and qualifications with the aim to facilitate the circulation of clear and complete information, useful for admissions officers, credential evaluators and students willing to participate in study abroad experiences.
