Sažetak
The Erasmus programme funded by the EuropeanUnion has provided the opportunity and impetus for the development of many modules, courses and programmes of a “European” nature. In this article, the authors describe how an Erasmus network for the Social Professions constructed a programme to become “European” in every aspect, from its development, design and structure to its validation arrangements. The co-ordination and management of the programme is also organised to be representative of the different regions of Europe, as is the recruitment of lectures and students. The programme has achieved considerable status during the past seven years and is “Under the auspices of Mr Walter Schwimmer, Secretary General of the Council of Europe”. In the second part of this article, the outcomes of the programme are evaluated, with details of student numbers, awards and country of origin. A survey of alumni is presented which demonstrates the impact of the course on student careers. Finally, some critical remarks are offered on issues that remain of concern – funding for students on such programmes, and the recognition of “European” awards.
