Project summary
Project website: https://www.hvl.no/en/collaboration/teacher-education-network/
The Teacher Education Network is an open network for institutions offering initial teacher education, early childhood educations or bachelor programmes in social educations and pedagogy.
The network started in 1990 as a bilateral cooperation between two institutions and has since grown and now includes 11 institutions in the Nordic and Baltic countries. The network has a special focus on aesthetic subjects and comparative education.
The purpose of the network is to increase the cooperation between the partner institutions through student and staff exchanges and to develop new intensive courses involving students and teachers from all partners.
The network was started by Torunn Bakken Hauge, who was project manager until 2018, when Aslaug Furholt became project manager.
