Infrastructure Forum and technical workshops
The Infrastructure Forum represents the Erasmus Without Paper technical community: IT colleagues in higher education institutions and from 3rd-party software providers. Their cooperation is essential as they implement EWP’s technical standards.
The forum shapes the technical evolution of EWP, ensures timely implementation across the network, and promotes cooperation among technical teams. It also serves as a platform for IT colleagues to raise technical questions and make sure that requirements and specifications are clear to all technical teams.
The Infrastructure Forum meets once a month. Below you will find the schedule of the meetings, key agenda points, and resources (published shortly before the meeting).
Invitations to the Infrastructure Forum meetings are shared with the technical community via the EWP providers mailing list.
Technical workshops for the technical community, mostly focused on testing, are usually organized twice a year.
