1. For the 2006/2007academic year, any partner institutes
that need a visiting lecturer should send an official letter
providing the following information:
A: Confirmation that the institute is prepared to
receive the visiting lecturer(s)
B: Names of the courses or modules which the visiting
lecturer will teach
C: A description of teaching conditions, support
facilities (e.g., teaching materials, accommodations)
and/or preferred techniques
D: Number of students
E: Level of students
2. The official letters should arrive at the secretariat no
later than the 30th of September 2006. As soon as
the letters are received, the secretariat will request
two nominations for qualified lecturers from each of
the other partner institutes, along with the candidates
curriculum vitae, job title, and brief descriptions of
the courses or modules they are currently teaching.
Visiting lectureships entail work both with students
aged between 17 and 21 years old and more senior
persons. Hence, candidates should be selected
with care. Another consideration is the security of
the guest lecturers.
3. After the secretariat finalises a list of successful
candidates, the names will be passed to the RF for
confirmation. The selection process, based on
the following criteria, should be completed by the 30th
of November 2006:
A: The qualifications of applicants should match
the courses or modules requested.
B: Only one of the two nominated lecturers from
every partner institute can be selected.
C: A visiting lecturer appointee and a requesting
institute cannot belong to the same home country.
4. One month prior to the visiting lecturer’s outbound
departure, the secretariat will provide each appointee
with funding covering the cost of a return flight ticket,
accommodations abroad, insurance, and living expenses
for a one-month residency.
5. Visiting lecturers must produce a report on their
experiences abroad, complete with visual documentation,
within one month of their return to their home country.
Failure to promptly fulfil this obligation would have
negative impact on the entire project.
6. Each host institute is also required to produce a report,
with visual documentation, describing their experience
with the visiting lecturer. This report should be filed
within one month of the lecturer’s return home.
7. The secretariat will examine the reports and will obtain
any necessary corrections or clarifications before
forwarding the completed documents to the RF.
8. Letters for requesting a visiting lecturer for the 2007/
2008 academic year should arrive at the secretariat by
the 30th of September 2007.
