Report on the Current State of Automatic Credit Recognition

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This report presents a comprehensive analysis of the current state of automatic academic recognition for credit mobility within the European Higher Education Area. It reviews the legal and policy framework, examines barriers and enabling practices, and analyses quantitative and qualitative data from students, higher education institutions, and practitioners. Produced within the AUREA project, the study identifies persistent challenges, such as inconsistent implementation, curricular incompatibilities, and gaps in Learning Agreement processes, and provides evidence-based insights to support progress toward seamless and fully automatic credit recognition across Europe.
