Extension of the ELMO format

ELMO is a data format for the exchange of (education) result information. ELMO is an implementation of the European (CEN) standards ELM-AI (European Learner Mobility – Achievement Information, EN 15981) and MLO (Metadata for Learning Objects, EN 15982). It is an XML-based format and latest version contains courses, diplomas, Microcredentials etc. It is used by for instance Erasmus Without paper and EMREX. ELMO is public domain and the entire description is available in Github (https://github.com/emrex-eu).

At a meeting in November 2021 the EMREX network opened up for starting a process for making extensions and alterations to the ELMO-schema. A staring workshop was held in December 2021 with the goal to continue and have a final workshop in summer. This workshop will discuss changes in detail and make decisions of incorporation in the standard.

The workshop objectives are:

  • to give all current and future stakeholders opportunity to suggest changes in the format,
  • to inform participants about suggested changes in the ELMO-format,
  • to discuss when changes should be included and to what extent they should be mandatory
  • to decide upon changes of the format.

 

Who should attend: people working on digitizing student processes, especially student mobility, transcripts, certificates

The workshop is organized in joint collaboration of the EMREX network,
the Platform for International Student Mobility and
liveSciences³ project.
