🌍 Accreditation Summer Camp 2026 | Day 3 – From Strategy to Action

Today marked the final day of the „Accreditation Summer Camp” Workshop, bringing three days of strategic reflection, expert discussions and collaborative work to a close.

The final day focused on a central challenge for ASE Bucharest: how to translate the vision of ASE 2035 and the Internationalisation Strategy 2027–2035 into concrete, measurable and sustainable action.

🎯 The morning began with “From ASE 2035 to today’s actions”, encouraging participants to identify the actions that can contribute directly to achieving the desired institutional results.

📌 This was followed by a discussion on the key elements required to build the Action Plan of the ASE Internationalisation Strategy 2027–2035, with particular attention to transforming strategic priorities into a coherent framework for implementation.

📊 Another important topic was implementation, monitoring and resources. Participants explored mechanisms for implementation and monitoring, institutional responsibilities, periodic reporting, the resources required and possible funding sources.

🤝 The workshop concluded with a reflection on the outcomes of the three-day programme and an evaluation of the activities, highlighting the importance of continued collaboration and shared responsibility in advancing ASE’s internationalisation agenda.

💡 The key outcome of Day 3: concrete contributions to the Action Plan for operationalising the ASE Internationalisation Strategy 2027–2035, including priority actions, expected results, indicators, responsibilities, timelines, monitoring and resource considerations.

✨ Three days. One shared vision. A clear direction towards ASE 2035.

The Accreditation Summer Camp 2026 provided a valuable space for bringing together strategic thinking, international expertise and collective institutional action—laying important groundwork for the continued internationalisation and development of ASE Bucharest.

🌍 Accreditation Summer Camp 2026 | Day 2

Day 2 of the „Accreditation Summer Camp” Workshop at ASE Bucharest focused on an essential question: How do we turn the Internationalisation Strategy ASE 2027–2035 into concrete action?

Following yesterday’s discussions on AACSB accreditation, international visibility and benchmarking, today’s programme moved from strategic foundations towards implementation, collaboration and action.

🎯 The day began with an update on the development of the ASE Internationalisation Strategy 2027–2035, providing the framework for the discussions and activities that followed.

🤝 Participants also explored the Operational Procedure for international cooperation activities and participation in European and international professional organisations, discussing how institutional cooperation can be structured and supported through clear processes.

🌐 Erasmus+ as an instrument for internationalisation was another key focus. The session highlighted recent Erasmus+ experience and results, the importance of international mobility and cooperation, and opportunities for the future. Particular attention was given to ensuring access to mobility for students from disadvantaged backgrounds and strengthening their integration into the academic community under conditions of equity and transparency.

📊 The afternoon brought participants into an applied workshop, moving from the four strategic areas and institutionally validated objectives towards concrete actions. Working in groups, participants began identifying and formulating initiatives that can contribute to the implementation of ASE’s internationalisation ambitions.

💡 Day 2 takeaway: internationalisation becomes meaningful when strategic objectives are translated into clear, concrete and achievable actions, supported by collaboration across the academic community.

Today’s work represents an important step towards transforming the ASE Internationalisation Strategy 2027–2035 into a practical framework for institutional development, international cooperation and greater global engagement.

Tomorrow, the workshop continues with a focus on results, indicators, responsibilities, implementation, monitoring and resources—bringing us closer to a concrete action plan for ASE 2035.

🌍 Accreditation Summer Camp 2026 | Day 1

Today, we opened the third edition of „Accreditation Summer Camp” Workshop, taking place from 2–4 September 2026 as part of the project „Consolidarea capacității instituționale de internaționalizare a ASE București în vederea alinierii la standardele AACSB și obținerii acreditărilor internaționale”.

The first day focused on AACSB accreditation and internationalisation – the institutional and strategic context, bringing together ASE representatives and international academic expertise around a shared objective: strengthening ASE’s international profile and supporting its institutional development.

🎓 The workshop was officially opened by Prof. Univ. Dr. Constantin-Marius Profiroiu, Vice-Rector for International Relations, who outlined the objectives and expected outcomes of the three-day programme.

🔹 AACSB accreditation progress
Participants reviewed the current stage of the AACSB accreditation process, including the main results and progress reflected in Progress Report 2 and the next steps ahead.

🌐 International visibility and reputation
An important session explored internationalisation as a driver of institutional reputation, the synergies between international accreditations and university rankings, and possible directions for enhancing ASE’s international visibility. The discussion benefited from the expertise of Prof. Univ. Dr. Cristina Neesham (Newcastle University Business School, UK; Swinburne University of Technology, Australia) and Lect. Univ. Dr. Costin Ciora.

📊 International benchmarking: from good practices to strategic action
The day concluded with a focus on how international benchmarking and global standards, including AACSB, can inform strategic initiatives and contribute to ASE’s institutional development, presented by Lect. Univ. Dr. Cătălin Ploae.

💡 Day 1 takeaway: building a shared understanding of the current AACSB accreditation process and of the strategic role of internationalisation in the institutional development of ASE.

The discussions of today set the foundation for the next stages of the Summer Camp: moving from the ASE Internationalisation Strategy 2027–2035 towards concrete actions, results, indicators and implementation mechanisms.
