Reading Grid The reading grid below was designed following a project group meeting reflecting our expectation of possible key areas for discussion and reflection which may arise during our reading of the Diploma Supplement examples. <strong>Study</strong> on the Diploma Supplement This is simply a tool to aid you in your cross-reading of the Diploma Supplements. Readability/Communication Usefulness/Efficiency • Is the Diploma Supplement you’re reading strictly following the Europass model or not? - Are possible deviations useful or misleading? • To what extent is the Diploma Supplement clear in terms of: - Content? - structure? - language? • Is the information detailed enough? - Does the Diploma Supplement give you the sources to find more information if necessary (i.e. required information which is not detailed in the Diploma Supplement)? Did you find all the necessary information in the Diploma Supplement? - Is there information missing in the Diploma Supplement that would prove useful to you in your capacity as a … - Which sections do you find relevant / informative? - Which sections do you not find relevant? • Is the Diploma Supplement understandable for a national and/or an international audience? • Do you feel that you would have needed some background information in order to really understand this document? • Can you easily find in the document who issued it? Keep in mind we require detailed feedback for the debriefing meeting. 38
Diploma Supplement Model proposed by the European Commission, Council of Europe and UNESCO/CEPES I. OUTLINE STRUCTURE FOR THE DIPLOMA SUPPLEMENT. This Diploma Supplement model was developed by the European Commission, Council of Europe and UNESCO/CEPES. The purpose of the supplement is to provide sufficient independent data to improve the international ‘transparency’ and fair academic and professional recognition of qualifications (diplomas, degrees, certificates etc.). It is designed to provide a description of the nature, level, context, content and status of the studies that were pursued and successfully completed by the individual named on the original qualification to which this supplement is appended. It should be free from any value judgements, equivalence statements or suggestions about recognition. Information in all eight sections should be provided. Where information is not provided, an explanation should give the reason why. 1 INFORMATION IDENTIFYING THE HOLDER OF THE QUALIFICATION 1.1 Family name(s): 1.2 Given name(s): 1.3 Date of birth (day/month/year): 1.4 Student identification number or code (if available): 2 INFORMATION IDENTIFYING THE QUALIFICATION 2.1 Name of qualification and (if applicable) title conferred (in original language): 2.2 Main field(s) of study for the qualification: 2.3 Name and status of awarding institution (in original language): 2.4 Name and status of institution (if different from 2.3) administering studies (in original language): 2.5 Language(s) of instruction/examination: 3 INFORMATION ON THE LEVEL OF THE QUALIFICATION 3.1 Level of qualification: 3.2 Official length of programme: 3.3 Access requirements(s) 4 INFORMATION ON THE CONTENTS AND RESULTS GAINED 4.1 Mode of study: 4.2 Programme requirements: 4.3 Programme details: (e.g. modules or units studied), and the individual grades/marks/credits obtained: (if this information is available on an official transcript this should be used here) 4.4 Grading scheme and, if available, grade distribution guidance: 4.5 Overall classification of the qualification (in original language): 5 INFORMATION ON THE FUNCTION OF THE QUALIFICATION 5.1 Access to further study: 5.2 Professional status (if applicable): 6 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION 6.1 Additional information: 6.2 Further information sources: 7 CERTIFICATION OF THE SUPPLEMENT 7.1 Date: 7.2 Signature: 7.3 Capacity: 7.4 Official stamp or seal: 8 INFORMATION ON THE NATIONAL HIGHER EDUCATION SYSTEM (N.B.
