More about the Egracons tool
The tool will enable both single conversion (a single student grade to a single grade) and multiple conversions (all the grades of one student). The result can then be exported to a document.
It goes without saying that conversions are only possible between HEIs who have supplied their grading table data. These should be uploaded annually.
The data will be protected and subject to discretion. Only persons in charge of the conversion of grades in HEIs (such as Erasmus coordinators, Programme Directors and IRO-officers) will have access to the full functionality of the tool. They will have to login to get access. General information on the grading scale used and the grading practices in the country will also be available.
Students will not be allowed to use the tool directly but the tool will obviously be able to provide them with a lot of general and background information on grading practices. The country reports will be available to them. Each HEI will in fact be able to decide how much information they will make available to the general website associated with the tool.

From the beginning of 2015 extensive testing will be performed, and the tool will be fully operational as from the autumn of 2015.
