Studying Abroad Pilot

2022-01-11T10:08:50Z

Efstratios.kontopoulos: /* Deliverables */ Added link to D4.1

The Studying Abroad pilot of the “Digital Europe for All” (DE4A) project aims at demonstrating in practice the benefits for different European Higher Education Area stakeholders of realizing across borders the principles of once only and digital-by-default. The pilot will also validate novel technologies and concepts, such as verifiable credentials, self-sovereign identities and distributed ledgers.

By the combination of three use cases (UC#1 - Application to public higher education, UC#2 - Applying for study grant, and UC#3 - Diploma recognition) it will prove the optimal process/procedure for students of the participating three Member States (Portugal, Slovenia, and Spain) for registration to higher education and eventually applying for a student grant as well as for studies recognition.

The pilot will run in two iterations, the first from October 2021 to the end of January 2022, and the second from May 2022 to the end of October 2022.

==Use cases==

[[Use Case "Application to Public Higher Education" (SA UC1)]]

[[Use Case "Applying for Study Grant" (SA UC2)]]

[[Use Case "Diploma/Certs/Studies/Professional Recognition" (SA UC3)]]

Use Case "Applying for Study Grant" (SA UC2)

2021-12-10T09:45:15Z

Efstratios.kontopoulos:

Use Case "Applying for Study Grant" of the [[Studying Abroad Pilot]] (SA UC2) focuses on the procedure of applying for a study grant abroad. This procedure corresponds to the "Applying for a tertiary education study financing, such as study grants and loans from a public body or institution" procedure from Annex II of the SDGR. Slovenia and Spain are involved in this use case.

== Interaction pattern ==
This UC uses the [[User-supported Intermediation Pattern]].

== [[SA UC2 Process|Process]] ==
Here, the main steps of the process are briefly summarised:
*A student accesses an [https://wiki.de4a.eu/index.php/EProcedure_Portal eProcedure portal] of a Data Consumer (DC) to apply for study grant.
*The student is asked to authenticate at the DC using a legally recognized electronic identity (eIDAS identity).
*After successful authentication the student is presented with a list of calls for grants. The student selects the desired call.
*The student is asked to provide higher education diploma (evidence), which is mandatory for the application.
*The student explicitly requests that the DE4A Once-only Principle Technical System is used to retrieve the diploma from a Data Provider (DP) in his/her home country.
*DC sends through the DE4A Once-only Principle Technical Systema request to the DP that has the student's diploma and directs the student to DP's [https://wiki.de4a.eu/index.php/Evidence_Portal Evidence portal].
*The student authenticates at the DP.
*The DP [https://wiki.de4a.eu/index.php/Record_Matching matches the student's identity with his/her record], retrieves the students's diploma from a registry, transforms it into a canonical format according to the [https://wiki.de4a.eu/index.php/SA_UC2_Data_Model SA UC2 data model], and shows it to the student.
* The student previews the diploma and gives consent for sending it to the DC.
*The DP transmits the diploma to the DC through the Once-only Principle Technical System and redirects the students back to the DC.
*The DC transforms the diploma from canonical format to local format and pre-fills an application form with the diploma attributes.
*The student enters missing information that cannot be obtained from the DP, e.g. email address, contact phone number, in the form and submits the application.
*DC validates the application and acknowledges receipt.
== Pilot scenario ==

==== UC2 - Slovenia ====
Currently, no study grant application services exist in production in Slovenia that are suitable to Spanish users. Therefore, a service will be set up at JSI for the project purposes where the students from Universitat Jaume I will be able to submit applications for study grants. The applicants’ evidence will be retrieved from a trusted data provider in Spain via the DE4A OOP TS. The Spanish students will authenticate at the JSI system using their eIDAS eIDs, they will explicitly request the use of the DE4A OOTS to retrieve the required evidence from their home countries, and will then be redirected to the competent authority responsible for issuing the evidence, where they will Preview the evidence before being redirected back to the requesting competent authority in Slovenia.

Canonical Evidence

2021-06-03T10:09:47Z

Efstratios.kontopoulos: Fixed link

'''Canonical Evidence''' is the ''canonical form of a domestic evidence according to a common data structure and format''. DE4A has defined a canonical form for each of the evidence types required by the procedures involved in the cross-border evidence exchange. The canonical form for each evidence type that has been identified is called '''canonical evidence type''' and these types are essential for the semantic interoperability of cross-border evidence, since they provide agreements on concepts, meanings, languages and ways to represent the information. However, since canonical evidence is not lawfully issued evidence, issuing authorities should provide both domestic and canonical evidence and they are responsible for the accuracy of the matching between canonical and domestic evidences. In this way, canonical evidence is aimed at the automated processing of cross-border and domestic evidence for legal audits at a regular basis or at the request of interested parties. This approach follows the logic behind the multilingual standard forms set by the [https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32016R1191 Regulation 2016/1191] on Public documents.

Canonical evidence types are implemented according to '''common data models''' that are defined from '''domain-specific ontologies''', which reuse existing ''standard agnostic and specific vocabularies, code lists and data models''.

Canonical Evidence

2021-06-03T07:38:55Z

Efstratios.kontopoulos: Added info about SA CE

'''Canonical Evidence''' is the ''canonical form of a domestic evidence according to a common data structure and format''. DE4A has defined a canonical form for each of the evidence types required by the procedures involved in the cross-border evidence exchange. The canonical form for each evidence type that has been identified is called '''canonical evidence type''' and these types are essential for the semantic interoperability of cross-border evidence, since they provide agreements on concepts, meanings, languages and ways to represent the information. However, since canonical evidence is not lawfully issued evidence, issuing authorities should provide both domestic and canonical evidence and they are responsible for the accuracy of the matching between canonical and domestic evidences. In this way, canonical evidence is aimed at the automated processing of cross-border and domestic evidence for legal audits at a regular basis or at the request of interested parties. This approach follows the logic behind the multilingual standard forms set by the [https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32016R1191 Regulation 2016/1191] on Public documents.
