Efficient University Administration

Kick-Off Partners Meeting of Erasmus+ Project “Efficient University Administration” Held in Wroclaw, Poland

The consortium of the Erasmus+ project “Efficient University Administration” successfully held its kick-off partners meeting in Wroclaw, Poland, between the 13th and 14th of  December 2023. This pivotal event marked the official launch of the two-year project, aimed at enhancing administrative efficiency in higher education . The project is co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union. The meeting gathered representatives from the four partner institutions that form the consortium: Dobre Kadry, the project coordinator from Poland; UCLan Cyprus; Libertas University from Croatia; and Katowice University of Economics from Poland. Over the course of three days, the partners engaged in discussions on the strategic objectives of the project, the responsibilities of each institution, and the collaborative steps needed to achieve its goals.

The “Efficient University Administration” project aims to develop innovative solutions to streamline administrative processes, ensuring that universities can operate more effectively through the development of an IT tool. During the meeting, participants outlined a detailed work plan, established working groups, and set milestones for the coming months. In addition to formal discussions, the meeting provided an opportunity for the partners to strengthen their collaborative ties and share insights on the diverse challenges faced by universities across Europe.

The consortium is looking forward to the next phase of the project, which includes investigating certain competencies and developing an IT tool for testing university administrative positions at the partner institutions. The project is set to deliver impactful results that will benefit universities across the European Union and beyond.
