The Review of the Legislative and Operational framework of the Greek Open University
Abstract
This paper elaborates on the revision of the Founding Act 2083/1992 and 2552/1997 of the Greek Open University. The Founding Act of the Greek Open University has changed over time, depending on the socio-economic conditions and labor market requirements. It should be noted that the proposed changes are directly related to the subjects of the faculties of the Greek Open University and are focused in three areas: 1. The self-administered of the Greek Open University, which means to modify Law 2252/1997, in order to set up and operate the following bodies: Rector's Council, General Assembly Department, Board and Chairman of that Department and to divide Schools into departments and sectors (eg. School of Science and Technology in 2 Departments, etc.) 2. The modernization of the Greek Open University to the needs and demands of society (making subjects contemporary, in order to respond to the needs of society, exploring the labor market for the employment of graduates of the Greek Open University, etc.) and 3. Support of the philosophy of Open Education (reduction or abolition of tuition fees for students so that more people can study etc.). With these proposed changes the Greek Open University will attract more people who either wish to start their studies or they wish to continue them. Ακρόαση
