[WP1] PREPARATION OF THE PROJECT

During the work package 1 (WP1) two experts of each European Partner HEI will travel to Asia to realize an “In depth study of the state of art”.

This in field study will be necessary to develop a quantitative and qualitative comprehensive report of the situation and variables which act in the field of veterinary studies in HEIs of Asian partner countries. Reports are available for download in the “Documents” section of this website.

[WP2] DEVELOPMENT OF VETERINARY NETWORK AMONG PARTNERS OF THE CONSORTIUM

This WP will result with the creation, design and maintenance of a networking environment as a tool to share all relevant information’s related to the project.
The ENVT is the leader of this WP and the responsible of the online training courses about Bologna Process in European Higher Education Area.

[WP3] TRAINING OF TRAINERS (ToT)

Theoretical and practical training of 3 staff members from each Asian partner University, who will move to Europe to the 3 European universities of the Consortium. The 30 Asian staff will be divided into 3 groups; 10 Staff will visit for ten days the Ecole Nationale Veterinaire Toulose (France), 10 staff will visit for ten days the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (Spain). The other group of 10 Staff will move to the University of Porto (Portugal). The training will focus on new teaching methodologies applied to the field of veterinary medicine. During the stay, an exchange of knowledge between Asian and European Staff will be held through technical visits to public and private institutions related to the veterinary sector in both countries. The Asian incoming Staff will present also lectures and talks about topics of mutual interest on which they have particular experience and knowledge (for example exotic pets and associated risks). These lectures will be opened to all students.

The ToT will be held in February-March 2018

After being defined the equipment needs of each veterinary school of Asian partners universities, it will proceed to purchase and implement the equipment, following strict viability criteria such as priority, sustainability and efficiency.

[WP6] QUALITY PLAN

The REVET Quality committee will define the roadmap to follow and quality standards to be achieved by each method defined in the new Quality Plan of the Faculties of Veterinary Asian countries included in the project. At the same time, the methodology for monitoring, evaluation and control of the parameters defined in the Plan will be defined. The project aims to develop 2 External Audits throughout the project: 2 technical audits, coinciding with the end of the second and third year of the project and 1 finantial audit at the end of the project.
