11 Cross border higher education : too many cooks in the kitchen (ECA-NVAO, 2010)?. An increasing phenomenon,. A great diversity of realities and qualities. A big business (branch campuses, offshore programmes ) 11

12 Joint programmes (training and research) : a European know-how - Balanced cooperation issues for a strong EHEA A very rich experience for staff, students and institutions (see Erasmus Mundus success stories) A great opportunity for QAA for joint processes and innovation in jointness criteria An opportunity for linguistic diversity. To compete better outside Europe Great comparative advantages Teaching, learning and research added values 12

13 About the quality of joint programmes Beyond standards and procedures, quality of joint European and international programmes (including research) is a matter of : - shared values and common trust - joint actions, joint outcomes - «jointness» criteria - linguistic diversity - a good balance between intercultural understanding and academic excellences 13

14 Conclusion European approaches are the best way to build a strong, open and inclusive EHEA A European approach for QA for joint programme is a great opportunity for balanced cooperation policies between QAA within Europe and outside Europe The implementation of this new tool is an important action of the work plan of the Bologna process for 2018 and the next implementation report could analyse its success What could be the next steps for QA in the EHEA beyond 2020? 14
