The Witelon University of Applied Sciences in Legnica – Information on the University ECTS – GENERAL INFORMATION* The European Credit Transfer System was initially set up in 1989 as a pilot scheme within the framework of the Erasmus programme. Its aim at that time was to facilitate the recognition of study periods undertaken abroad by mobile students through the transfer of credits. As a transfer system ECTS has expanded to over 30 countries and has been introduced in more than one thousand higher education institutions. The 40 Signatory States in the Bologna Process have identified ECTS as one of the cornerstones of the European Higher Education Area. A large number of countries have adopted ECTS by law as an accumulation system for their own higher education systems and others are in the process of doing so. In some countries ECTS has become a requirement for accreditation. The Zurich Conference on Credit Transfer and Accumulation, held in October 2002 by the European University Association, endorsed the central role of ECTS in higher education. ECTS will have a fundamental place in the design of a national and European Qualifications Framework. Schemes based on ECTS are being introduced in other continents. The correct use of ECTS depends on the commitment of thousands of motivated people working in higher education, in very different circumstances and cultures. The following measures have been taken in order to assist these persons and to promote the correct and consistent use of ECTS across Europe. ECTS makes study programmes easy to read and compare. It can be used for all types of programmes, whatever their mode of delivery, and for lifelong learning purposes. It serves both mobile and non-mobile students: it can be used for accumulation within an institution and for transfer between institutions. ECTS helps learners moving between countries, within a country, town or region, as well as between different types of institutions; it also covers self-study and work experience. For these reasons the well-known acronym “ECTS” now stands for “European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System”. ________________________________________________________________________________ * ECTS USERS’ GUIDE EUROPEAN CREDIT TRANSFER AND ACCUMULATION SYSTEM AND THE DIPLOMA SUPPLEMENT, Directorate-General for Education and Cultural, February 2005.
