On 5 April 2019, ASHE’s Central Applications Office (CAO) received the visit of colleagues from the EMREX network – Vera Mol from the Netherlands, head of innovative projects at the Dutch Government’s Executive Agency (Dienst Uitvoering Onderwijs – DUO) and Matija Puzar from Norway, senior engineer in the Management for ICT and shared services in higher education and research (Direktoratet for IKT og fellestjenester i høyere utdanning og forskning – UNIT), in charge of the development of ELMO and XML exchange standards.
During the visit, our colleagues shared their work experience with the EMREX network, which challenges they have to face in the electronic transfer of student records, and what are their plans for the future when it comes to service improving.
Considering that the Agency for Science and Higher Education created the EMREX National Contact Point (NCP) and a new service “e-Exchange of student grade” on e-Citizens portal at the end of August 2018, making Croatia part of the EMREX network, this visit was particularly useful for the exchange of good practice.
