    • Students can choose courses that have been listed in a network agreement about cross-institutional studies. These courses can be found in a course catalogue on this page.
    • The rules of the institution that organizes the teaching must be followed.
    • The assessments are made and registered in the target institution and the credits can be transferred to home institution by accreditation of learning.
