What is a Learning Agreement?
A Learning Agreement (LA) is a plan that details the subjects you plan to study during your mobility. The Learning Agreement and Transcript of Records guarantee the transcription of your grades for the courses you have completed during your exchange. The Learning Agreement consists of three parts: BEFORE, DURING and AFTER the Mobility.
Learning Agreement (LA) is a plan that details what courses you aim to take and pass during your mobility. It is a study plan drafted by you prior to your exchange listing down the courses you will attend during your semester abroad.
Three parties should sign the LA:
- Home University (Departmental Coordinator of the WNPISM)
- Host University (Instructions should be provided by the partner university upon acceptance)
- Student
In case of changes to your study plan (eg. the course you originally planned to attend is unavailable or the schedule of the course does not match your other courses), your LA should be updated and signed again by all parties.
The final version of the LA and the transcript of records guarantee the transfer of credits for courses passed successfully by the exchange student.
