The EDUcardS strategic partnership in higher education is presented by the EDUC alliance, which is constituted of five Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) from four countries: The Czech Republic, France, Germany and Italy. The objective is to set up, in the mobility space that the EDUC alliance offers, the European Student Card (ESC) and to test a methodological framework for its deployment during an experimental phase, to identify any potential difficulty and to come up with solutions to overcome potential problems. Beyond its implementation in an alliance with a total of 160,000 students, the use of the ESC will be evaluated, experienced and will encompass the provision of several related services such as access to libraries, restaurants, housing and public transport provided by university cities.At the end of this project, four intellectual outputs will be delivered, one inventory, two guidebooks and one report will be made available to all HEIs throughout the EU, whether they are partners are not. Training activities will took place so that staff members from partner HEIs can trade best practices, feed their own reflection, and therefore find innovative solutions. A dissemination event will be organised to give a multiplier effect to the EDUcardS project. These deliverables will contribute to the implementation of the ESC and support the EDUC alliance’s use of the Erasmus Without Paper (EWP) project.
