Abstract

We present ongoing developments and projects concerning the digitization of Higher Education Use Cases, Processes and Infrastructures in the context of EU developments and standardization efforts (EU SDG). These use cases and projects include: (i) student applications at Higher Education Institution (HEI) portals at HEI and at the Stiftung für Hochschulzulassung (SfH) sites for admissions; (ii) secure and trustworthy production of exam certificates for HEI and EDU applications; (iii) student mobility digitization, e.g. ELMO, EMREX, EDCI, eIDAS, PIM, and (iv) standardization efforts embedded in the EU contexts such as XHigherEducationInstitutionExchange (XHEIE).
Orchestrating the process participants (SfH, universities, applicants) is necessary for effective operation and calls for the strategic and systematic expansion of digitization. In the future the Online Access Act (OZG) reinforces the need to digitize admissions processes operated by the participants.
