Aurelija Valeikienė, Deputy Director of SKVC, participated in a meeting of the international Micro-credentials Consultation Group organized by the European Commission by the means of a video conference. During the discussion, the definition of micro-credentials and the instruments ensuring their transparency were discussed. 

We invite holders of foreign secondary qualifications who are aiming for admission to state funded places in the Lithuanian universities and colleges to apply with our office for recognition and conversion of grades. Starting from this year, all applications to the Centre for Quality Assessment in Higher Education (SKVC) should be submitted online at https://epe.skvc.lt/. 

Changes caused by the pandemic COVID-19 will be taken by the Centre for Quality Assessment in Higher Education into account while providing recognition of the 2020 acquired foreign access qualifications to higher education. Decisions regarding recognition of the qualifications will be taken with regards to the requirements set for the qualifications to enter higher education in their home countries this year.
