The study was a response to a 2013 report from a high-level EU working group, which found a need for such initiatives.
“It would not be realistic to expect one European initiative to cater to the diverse needs and demands of the entire European higher education sector,” the EUA’s European Forum for Enhanced Collaboration in Teaching project concluded. “Therefore, several alternative models should be considered.”
