Abstract

Belarus joined the Bologna process in spring 2015, which called for the need to converge higher education systems of Belarus and countries of the European Higher Education Area. Higher Education systems in different countries are brought to standard in several ways. The member states of the Bologna process are invited to introduce a single system of qualifications and degrees targeted to the modern job market. To ensure comparing the study attainment and performance of students across different higher education institutions a system of credits is introduced. The Bologna process also provides much more independence of higher education institutions when compared to the existing system. Becoming engaged in the Bologna process Belarus takes obligations to reform the higher education system to bring it closer to a European standard.
