Tempus Annual Report 2004 

1. 

FOREWORD 

The Tempus III Programme (2000-2006) focuses on the development of the higher education 
systems in the 27 partner countries through co-operation with institutions from the Member 
States of the European Union. Higher education institutions are of particular importance for 
the social and economic transition process as well as for inter-cultural dialogue; they are also 
pools of expertise and of human resources and provide for the training of new generations of 
leaders. 

A detailed description of the Tempus programme can be found at the following URL: 

http://europa.eu.int/comm/education/programmes/tempus/index_en.html 

The present annual report is presented in accordance with Article 11 of the Council Decision 
establishing the Tempus programme (OJ L 120 of 8 May 1999).

IMPLEMENTING TEMPUS IN 2004: THE MAIN ACTION LINES 

The  implementation  of  the  Tempus  programme  in  2004  was  guided  inter  alia  by  the 
conclusions and recommendations of the mid-term evaluation published in November 2003. 
The evaluation confirmed the relevance of the programme to support higher education reform 
and development as well as the validity of its intervention logic and management approaches. 
The  following  recommendations  were  particularly  relevant  for  the  implementation  of  the 
programme in 2004: 

•  The  process  of  formulation  of  the  country-specific  priorities  should  be  strengthened  by 
means  of  a  more  structured  dialogue  with  the  educational  authorities  of  the  partner 
countries. 

•  Tempus funds should be used for what the programme does best, i.e. promoting mobility, 

exchanges and innovation of study programmes. 

•  The relevance and the impact of the programme should be actively promoted at the level of 

the national authorities. 

•  Field monitoring should be reintroduced on a selective basis. 

Against this background, the main Tempus action lines in 2004 were: 

(1)  Maximising the impact of the programme through a reinforced top-down approach, a 

strengthened policy dialogue, and more structural measures;

   EN 

 
(2) 

Reinforcing mobility by promoting individual mobility grants; 

(3) 

Adapting and reinforcing selection and monitoring procedures; 

(4) 

Better defining the role of National Tempus Offices. 

In accordance with Article 12 of the Council Decision establishing Tempus III (OJ L 120 of 8 
May  1999),  the  findings  of  the  mid-term  evaluation  report  were  taken  into  account  in  the 
preparation of the future Tempus programme.

REINFORCED TOP-DOWN APPROACH 

3.1. 

Enhanced policy dialogue 

In  2004,  the  European  Commission  sought  to  reinforce  the  policy  dialogue  with  the 
authorities  responsible  for  higher  education  from  the  partner  countries.  A  series  of  bilateral 
meetings  took  place  in  March/April  2004  in  Brussels.  The  purpose  of  this  dialogue  was  to 
acquire a better understanding of the situation of higher education in the partner countries, to 
identify areas where co-operation through Tempus could have the greatest impact (and to this 
end better define national priorities) and to enhance EU co-operation in higher education. 

In  spite  of  the  differences  between  countries  in  terms  of  level  of  development  and 
organisation  of  their  higher  education  systems,  the  dialogue  revealed  a  striking  degree  of 
convergence  in  the  countries’  main  preoccupations, namely quality assurance,  accreditation, 
access to higher education and tuning education to labour market needs. 

European  Tempus  partner  countries  are  naturally  involved  in  the  reform  process  which 
Europe is undergoing under the impulse of the Bologna process. The dialogue confirmed that 
most  non-European  partner  countries  have  also  embarked  on  reform  processes  seeking 
convergence with European higher education systems along the lines of the Bologna process. 

The  bilateral  discussions  were  followed  up  by  a  joint  meeting  with  representatives  from 
Member  States  and  from  the  Ministries  of  Education  of  Tempus  partner  countries  in  July 
2004. The meeting focused in particular on two issues that emerged as the most relevant to the 
ongoing  reforms  of  higher  education  in  the  partner  countries,  namely  quality  assurance 
systems in higher education, and university / enterprise cooperation. 

The  generalisation  of  quality  assurance  strategies  and  mechanisms  is  key  to  the  higher 
education reform agenda in the partner countries. Many partner countries are taking steps in 
this area closely following developments within the EU Member States. 

Tuning higher education to labour market needs is a major preoccupation in partner countries. 
Many partner countries emphasised the need to better analyse current and prospective labour 

EN 

3 

   EN 

 
market  needs  in  order  to  adapt  higher  education  structures.  Although  there  was  a  large 
consensus  on  the  need  to  promote  university/enterprise  cooperation  in  order  to  enhance 
students’  employability  on  the  labour  market,  the  discussion  revealed  that  only  a  small 
number  of  countries  have  formulated  strategies  to  meet  such  a  need.  The  European 
Commission intends to study this topic in 2005, outlining the role that Tempus has played and 
can continue to play in developing cooperation between university and enterprises. 

3.2. 

Joint European Projects 

As  a  result  of  the  reinforced  policy  dialogue,  national  priorities  for  Joint  European  Projects 
were  agreed  between  partner  country  authorities  and  the  European  Commission.  These 
priorities aim at establishing closer linkages between Tempus projects and the national reform 
agenda of the partner countries thereby maximising the programme’s impact. 

Joint European Projects (JEP) support innovative multilateral initiatives involving at least one 
university from a partner country, one university in an EU Member State and one academic or 
non-academic consortium member in a different EU Member State. Joint European Projects 
aim at transferring knowledge from EU universities to institutions in the partner countries in 
the  areas  of  curriculum  development,  institution  building  and  university  management.  They 
absorb around 82% of the total Tempus annual funding. In 2004, the European Commission 
funded 111 JEPs with a total EC contribution of approximately € 44 million. 

3.3. 

Structural and Complementary Measures 

At  the  end  of  2003,  a  new  type  of  Tempus  projects  was  launched  -  the  Structural  and 
Complementary  Measures  (SCMs).  This  type  of  project  was  introduced  to  support  partner 
countries  efforts  in  formulating  and  implementing  higher  education  reform  strategies.  It 
reinforces  the  top-down  approach  of  the  programme  by  seeking  the  close  involvement  of 
higher  education  authorities  in  partner  countries.  SCMs  typically  address  horizontal  issues 
such as the introduction of credit transfer systems, quality assurance mechanisms, recognition 
of  qualifications,  or  university/enterprise  cooperation.  Projects  under  this  programme 
component  need  to  be  endorsed  by  national  educational  authorities  and  frequently  involve 
national or regional bodies directly as partners. 

Given  the  generalised  interest  amongst  Tempus  partner  countries  in  the  Bologna  process,  a 
joint  call  for  proposals  Tempus/Socrates  aimed  at  supporting  Bologna-related  projects  was 
launched  in  2004.  Institutions  from  Tempus  partner  countries  were  invited  to  submit 
proposals under SCMs. The aim of the ten selected projects, inter alia, is to set up teams of 
Bologna promoters and to involve Tempus partner countries in Bologna-related conferences 
and seminars.  

When  looking  back  at  the  three  calls  for  proposals  for  SCMs  organised  since  this  new 
instrument was launched in October 2003, one can see the number of SCMs funded so far is 
evenly distributed between the different regions covered by Tempus. 

A brief analysis of their objectives indicates that most projects (58% of all projects) are linked 
to  the  action  lines  of  the  Bologna  process,  with  two  main  focuses:  1)  dissemination  of 
information  by  setting  up  teams  of  Bologna  promoters;  and  2)  design  of  quality  assurance 
systems  in  higher  education,  a  theme  which  is  particularly  popular  in  the  Tacis  region  (a 
fourth  of  all  SCMs  selected  in  the  Tacis  region  are  linked  to  quality  enhancement).  In  the 

EN 

4 

   EN 

 
Western Balkans, SCMs linked to the Bologna process represent 72% of all projects, which is 
quite natural, since all countries in the region have signed the Bologna declaration. 

SCMs are also used as instruments to support the modernisation of university operations and 
services  (35%  of  all  SCMs),  with  an  emphasis  on  the  modernisation  and  reorganisation  of 
training programmes, the use of information and communication technologies, strengthening 
of international relations (and modernisation of teacher training). 

SCMs  are  still  underused  to  address  systemic  issues,  and  the  overall  reform  of  the  higher 
education  sector:  this  type  of  project  represents  only  7%  of  all  SCMs,  and  are  mainly 
concentrating on the Meda region. 

3.4. 

Regional Tempus conference in Central Asia 

In  November  2004,  the  European  Commission  services,  in  partnership  with  the  Ministry  of 
Higher  and  Secondary  Specialised  Education  of  the  Republic  of  Uzbekistan,  organised  in 
Tashkent a Tempus conference on higher education reform in Central Asia. The objectives of 
the conference were to exchange information on and discuss the reform processes in partner 
countries, to update the participants on the latest developments of the Bologna process, and to 
explore  how  the  Tempus  programme  could  continue  to  contribute  to  modernising  and 
enhancing  the  quality  of  higher  education  systems  in  the  region.  All  five  delegations  from 
Central  Asia  present  at  the  conference  expressed  their  countries’  intention  to  apply  the 
principles  underlying  the  Bologna  process  and  informed  of  the  changes  being  introduced  in 
higher education structures and legislation to bring them in line with these principles. 

4. 

THE REINFORCEMENT OF INDIVIDUAL MOBILITY 

The evaluation of the third phase of the programme confirmed the value of mobility for both 
university  staff  and  students  and  underlined  the  importance  of  the  people-to-people 
cooperation  supported  through  Tempus.  Prior  to  2004,  this  action  had  been  used  only  to  a 
limited extent. The demand for this type of project had grown stronger with the extension of 
the Tempus programme to the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean partners, confirming the 
feedback from other regions on the desirability of increasing the number of grants. Individual 
Mobility  Grants  were  perceived  as  a  useful  and  flexible  tool  to  establish  partnerships  and 
develop project proposals as well as to facilitate exchange of know how, experience and good 
practices,  including  through  training  delivered  in  partner  countries  by  higher  education 
experts  from  the  European  Union.  Following  the  introduction  of  a  new  and  simple  online 
application  form  and  the  promotion  of  this  type  of  grants  in  partner  countries  in  2002,  the 
number of individual mobility grants soared in 2004: over 700 grants were awarded (up from 
663 in 2003) for all the regions covered by Tempus.

Application, selection and award process 

Detailed selection and financial information is provided in the three Annexes to this report.

   EN 

 
5.2. 

Grant agreements and payments 

Following  the  entry  into  force  of  the  Financial  Regulation,  the  management  of  all 
commitments and payments were transferred from the European Training Foundation to the 
European  Commission  in  2003.  The  transfer  coincided  with  both  the  preparatory  work 
leading  to  the  introduction  of  the  new  European  Commission  accounting  system  as  of  1 
January  2005  and  the  increase  in  the  number  of  Individual  Mobility  Grants.  The  new 
requirements regarding in particular the approval of bank accounts and legal entities coupled 
with the high number of grants resulted in unavoidable delays in issuing grant agreements. 

An additional difficulty was the late signature of some Financing Agreements for Tacis 2003 
Action  Programmes.  As  a  consequence  grant  agreements  for  Tempus  projects  involving 
institutions from the countries concerned were also delayed. 

5.3. 

Project monitoring 

The evaluation of the third phase of the programme recommended the reintroduction of field 
monitoring  as  a  necessary  complement  to  desk  monitoring.  Field  monitoring  had  been 
reintroduced in 2003 in combination with information days and continued in 2004. Further to 
that,  in  2004,  a  systematic  programme  for  field  monitoring  was  adopted  by  the  European 
Commission services. It targets 10% of running projects and involves around 30 projects to be 
visited  each  year.  The  first  monitoring  visits  under  this  programme  were  carried  out  in 
October 2004 by DG EAC in close cooperation with National Tempus Offices and the support 
from the European Training Foundation. 

As  part  of  its  preventive  monitoring  policy,  the  European  Commission  provided  training  to 
around  160  project  representatives  from  the  newly  selected  Cards  and  Meda  projects  at  a 
meeting  held  in  Berlin  in  September  2004.  Training  materials  and  contract  management 
documentation were developed and are available on the web. Due to delays in the signature of 
Financing  Agreements  between  the  European  Commission  and  Tacis  partner  countries,  a 
special  session  is  to  be  held  in  2005  for  projects  involving  institutions  from  the  countries 
concerned.  

With  a  view  to  further  simplifying  reporting  obligations,  on-line  report  forms  for  Structural 
and  Complementary  Measures  and  Individual  Mobility  Grant  projects  were  developed  and 
made available on the Tempus web site during the second half of 2004. 

6. 

INFORMATION DAYS 

Tempus  information  days  were  organised  in  most  partner  countries,  as  well  as  in  some  EU 
Member States. In 2004, the authorities responsible for higher education were systematically 
involved  in  the  information  campaigns  in  the  partner  countries  with  a  view  to  presenting 
Tempus national priorities. 

7. 

NATIONAL TEMPUS OFFICES AND TEMPUS NATIONAL CONTACT POINTS 

National  Tempus  Offices  in  partner  countries  play  a  key  role  in  the  implementation  of  the 
programme  providing  information  to  prospective  and  actual  programme  users,  as  well  as 
providing feedback to the European Commission services on on-going projects. In 2004 the 
European  Commission  services  continued  to  work  closely  with  National  Tempus  Offices 

EN 

6 

   EN 

 
seeking  to  bring  greater  coherence  to  this  network  and  to  ensure  an  adequate  flow  of 
information.  The  European  Commission  services  sought  in  particular  to  bring  greater 
horizontal  consistency  to  National  Tempus  Offices  work  programmes  and  grant  agreements 
with a view to further reinforcing their role. 

In 2004 new National Tempus Offices were set up in Russia and in the territories under the 
Palestinian Authority. 

Tempus  National  Contact  Points  in  Member  States  play  also  an  important  role  in  the 
programme  facilitating  the  involvement  of  European  Union  higher  education  institutions 
through  information  and  assistance  in  partner  searching.  In  2004  the  European  Commission 
services continued to reinforce its collaboration with National Contact Points. 

Representatives from National Tempus Offices and National Contact Points met in Brussels 
in March and in November 2004.  

8. 

THE FUTURE OF TEMPUS III 

Following the conclusions of the mid-term evaluation, and in accordance with Article 12 of 
the  Council  Decision  establishing  Tempus  III  (OJ  L  120  of  8  May  1999),  the  Commission 
proposed  that  the  programme  would  combine  the  bottom-up,  multilateral  cooperation 
approach with top-down complementary measures to support the modernisation of education 
and  training  systems  and  would  seek  to  enhance  the  volume  and  quality  of  transnational 
mobility. The preparation of the future Tempus programme is in progress. 

9. 

CONCLUSION 

The implementation of the programme in 2004 was guided by the results of the 2003 interim 
evaluation  of  Tempus  III  (2000  -  2006).  Dialogue  and  consultation  with  the  authorities 
responsible  for  higher  education  in  partner  countries  led  to  reinforced  national  priorities 
which  should  contribute  to  maximise  the  programme’s  impact  on  partner  countries’  higher 
education development. Tempus has been instrumental in supporting partner countries’ efforts 
to  put  Bologna  related  issues  high  on  their  reform  agenda.  The  increased  support  for 
individual  mobility  of  higher  education  professionals  and  the  introduction  of  Structural  and 
Complementary  activities,  coupled  with  dialogue  and  national  priorities,  contributed  to 
confirm Tempus as an instrument of choice for the implementation and formulation of partner 
countries’ higher education policies.
