CLUSTER vs Unite!: make sure not to do the same job twice. - - What could we do more within the CLUSTER network? What could we do more within the CLUSTER network? CLUSTER = solid network, with high level of exchange and close relationships => advantage? Idea for TFM to intensify exchange of information/ideas both formal (e.g. online meetings between SC on specific topic) and informal (e.g. WA group) Erasmus Without Paper (EWP) Erasmus Without Paper (EWP) Exchange on advancements, good practices, challenges: Exchange on advancements, good practices, challenges: - Many technical issues => delay in electronically signing IIA. - Not all institutions use all sections in EWP (IIA LA TOR) => complicated. - Different providers for connection with EWP (e.g. SOP Mobility Online, MoveOn) => complicated. - Beneficiary Module not used yet, since different National Agencies not ready. - Letter from Una Europa to EC with concern on lack of operational Beneficiary Module, Unite! also signed.

IIA is needed, since BIP is consideredstudy exchange, so similar paperwork. Commitment on number of students (at least 15 to be eligible for funding) Application for funding needs to be long in advance => inconvenient. Scholarships: possibility to prioritize students with fewer opportunities. Reduce of paperwork once EWP is fully operational. Advantages of BIP for lecturers not always clear. Administrative staff can provide assistance to lighten workload. From within TFM: plans to intensify connections among CLUSTER partners for BIP in near future 4
