DANSK DSF/ISO/IEC FDIS 19479 PDF

This Standard defines a model for the recording and exchange of learner achievement information among Student Information Systems (SIS) (also known as Student Management Information Systems), as well as the aggregation of information by third party suppliers. The model proposed within this standard is not intended to define the representation of the entire spectrum of Learner Mobility information – the scope of the standard is restricted to the definition of the formally structured representation of official, institutionally attested achievement information for learners engaged in formal learning processes, in order to facilitate its recording and subsequent exchange within any international area within which learner mobility is possible. Achievement Information structured and presented in compliance with this standard may, of course, be used for other purposes – for instance, to provide descriptions of achievement to enrich a learner-owned report, in terms of an e-portfolio. However, guidance on the standard and the organisation of information for purposes other than the representation of formal achievement reports is outside the scope of this standard. In addition, this standard defines refinements to the LMAI model for representing the DDS. The Digital Diploma Supplement Application Profile of LMAI focuses on the expression of information regarding the qualification awarded to a learner upon completion of a formal educational programme. The proposed profile is needed for the general purposes of: <br />• the use of academic achievements abroad: in continuing education or in seeking job opportunities <br />• the admission of students or graduates in domestic institutions and educational organizations and those abroad: acknowledgment of credits or transfer of credits accumulated in domestic institutions moving from one institution/educational organization to another <br />• the expression of the level, content and nature of qualifications to potential employers both nationally and at an international level <br />• the enhancement of internal and international student mobility, from one educational organization to another, or from one branch of studies to another <br />• the proper integration of foreign workers into a country's employment setting <br />• the standardization of higher education qualifications, either in academic or non-academic paths <br />• the establishment of good practices in the recognition procedures of qualifications among Higher Education Institutions
