PROOF OF ACCREDITATION
(The declarations of all HEIs which are beneficiaries must be merged into one file and uploaded as part of the application. Supporting documents of all HEIs must also be merged into the file.)

IMPORTANT NOTICE
In line with the Erasmus+ Programme Guide, at application stage full partner Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) from Programme or Partner Countries must: 
–	demonstrate to have fulfilled the external Quality Assurance (QA) requirements of their jurisdiction (e.g. accreditation or evaluation) for the joint programme; and
–	must be Master level degree-awarding institutions
In this context:
-	Where external quality assurance at programme level is compulsory at national level (e.g. accreditation or evaluation), proof of this by the national competent authorities can:
-	result from having successfully implemented the European Approach for Quality Assurance of Joint Programmes (if national legislation allows), or
-	be based on a specific accreditation/evaluation of the joint programme, or of each national component on the basis of which the EMJM study programme is composed.
-	Where system/institutional accreditation applies, i.e. HEIs self-accredit their study programmes, proof of valid accreditations can take the form of:
-	evidence of the corresponding national legislation that gives the right to the HEIs to offer study programmes and award Master's Degrees, and
-	evidence of the relevant internal decisions of the HEIs to deliver the national components of the proposed EMJM study programme.
Should the proposed EMJM have been successfully evaluated/quality assured by applying the European Approach for Quality Assurance of Joint Programmes, proof of having carried out this single evaluation should be provided as well.
