MAGNET (Managerial and GoverNance Enhancement through Teaching) is a consortium of 12 HEI partner institutions from 8 WB countries. University Pedagogy, mostly enhanced through the operation of Centers for Teaching and Learning (CTL), is a main pillar for the implementation of the European Higher Education Area. MAGNET aims to develop a network for University Pedagogy in the Western Balkans states, through know-how transfer from countries that have CTLs under operation to all partner countries. The main objectives include the know-how transfer, the establishment of CTLs, the production of educational material, and the creation of a sustainable network BALKANETUP (Balkan Network for University Pedagogy).
The Public International Business College Mitrovica (IBC-M), as a partner of this consortium, is set to establish a CTL and be an active member of the BALKANETUP.
