The role of the organisation in the project

KAHO Sint-Lieven will be project applicant/project coordinator. KAHO Sint-Lieven is the result of a merging of 8 higher education vocational colleges in 1996. So it has a long experience in setting up cooperation between different higher education institutions. Quality Assurance is considered as a strategic tool to guide this process. KAHO Sint-Lieven built up a large network for international cooperation, not only for staff members but also for students. KAHO Sint-Lieven will use this expertise in the implementation of the Academy of Applied Sciences in Southern Serbia. More particularly KAHO Sint-Lieven will be the lead partner for WP 1,2, 7 and 8. It is obvious that KAHO Sint-Lieven will also actively contribute to all other workpackages. KAHO Sint-Lieven has also a very well structured central student service and a very well developed intranet. KAHO will share this know-how with the vocational colleges who will be member of the ACAS and the newly created Conference in Serbia.
