Virtual Albanian European Universities Exchange (VALEU-X) is a joint project to support the internationalisation efforts of Higher Educational Institutions in Albania through modern technology-enhanced academic exchange with European HEIs. It proposes blending on-campus teaching activities with international Virtual Collaborative Learning (VCL) components as a Virtual Mobility element to introduce international perspectives in formal higher educational programmes within a holistic approach of Internationalisation at Home.

The project objectives include:

• Enable academic staff to extend their teaching processes and content with international perspectives and elements;
• Help Albanian HEI to develop effective internationalisation strategies;
• Provide Albanian students with international experience at their home HEI;
• Prepare Albanian HEI for successful integration in the EU academic landscape.
