# Education Mobility as a Service: A Study of the Features of a Novel Mobility Platform
## 7 Conclusions  
In conclusion, this research aimed to identify the crucial factors for the development of a novel ecosystem for European education mobility, specifically in the context of the current era of pandemics and restricted movement. An EMAaaS platform can offer several benefits to universities and employers from different countries participating in its operation, including:  
1. Improved student mobility and recognition of learning outcomes: The platform can support the recognition of learning outcomes and transfer credits, making it easier for students to study and work across different countries, and for universities--to accept students from other countries. 2. Enhanced student employability: The platform can support the development of transferable competencies, such as digital literacy, critical thinking, and problem-solving, making students more employable and better prepared for the modern workforce. 3. Increased international collaboration: The platform can facilitate collaboration and community building among students, teachers, and educational institutions, promoting greater understanding and cooperation among the countries in the region. 4. Access to a diverse range of educational opportunities: The platform can provide students with access to a diverse range of educational opportunities, including online and blended learning experiences, to support their learning and development. 5. Improved data collection and analysis: The platform can use technology and data to track student progress and provide real-time feedback, improving student outcomes and enhancing the effectiveness of educational institutions. 6. Exchange of best practices and research: The platform can provide a platform for the exchange of information, best practices, and research on education, supporting the continuous improvement of education in the region. 7. Better alignment of educational offerings with the needs of employers: The platform can provide employers with information on the skills and competencies of students, allowing them to better align their recruitment and training efforts with the needs of the workforce. In addition to the benefits for students, a regional EMAaS platform can provide extended benefits for other participants, including:  
* Teachers: The platform can offer teachers opportunities to broaden their professional network, share their expertise, and access new educational resources and materials. * Universities: The platform can allow universities to more easily recruit talented and qualified teachers and support the development of their faculty. * Employers: The platform can provide employers with access to a larger pool of qualified and skilled candidates and support the development of the competencies they need to succeed in a changing workforce. * Job seekers: The platform can help job seekers to more easily find relevant job opportunities, enhance their skills and competencies, and build their professional networks. * Researchers: The platform can provide researchers with access to a wealth of data and information on education and workforce development, supporting their work in these areas. * Policy makers: The platform can provide policy makers with insights and evidence on the state of education and workforce development in the region, allowing them to make informed decisions and support the development of effective policies and programs. The findings suggest that the acquisition of competencies should be oriented towards the future labor market, as this will better prepare students for the job market after graduation. Additionally, students expressed a preference for gamified activities in the pedagogical category, indicating that incorporating elements of play and engagement can improve the overall learning experience. In terms of organization, the platform should be designed so as to allow for easy job and training search, making it a useful tool for students looking to gain new skills andsecure employment.
