This month, ministers from across the Bologna signatory countries gathered in London to set the agenda for the final phase of the Bologna Process. ACA is analysing the outcomes of this meeting in the upcoming European policy seminar ‘The Bologna Process in its final lap’. The agenda will be rich and topical, and participants will have an opportunity to hear the opinions of key players on both the political and practical sides of Bologna's progression, all of whom attended the ministerial meeting first hand.

In addition to addressing the trends report and stocktaking exercises that have synthesised reforms thus far, we have also selected a series of thematic reports. Participants will be able to address these topics in parallel sessions, face to face with the experts themselves. Such topics will include: the European qualifications framework, the quality assurance register, and recognition. ACA will also draw upon more contentious areas of Bologna such as social dimensions and access, employability as well as the rejuvenated 'external dimension'. This seminar will be highly relevant, highly interactive, and highly responsive. We hope you can join us. Few places are left!
