A few words about the Diploma Supplement network

A need to have a space to discuss, share and learn about the Diploma Supplement between peers and stakeholders has been raised in various discussions over the years. A first step towards creating a network between interested parties was taken in Stockholm June 2023 in the ENIC-NARIC Annual Meeting. 

The network could, for example, offer support to organisations that want to digitalise the Diploma Supplement, function as a platform for sharing experiences and information between peers and also become a space where new approaches and ideas can be born.

You are warmly welcome to attend to the kick-off webinar,

Yolanda Brännström and Petra Nord, ENIC-NARIC Sweden at The Swedish Council for Higher Education
