Credit system and educational activities estimation
Credit points calculation at the higher school is made according to the directions of the Ministry of Education and Science about the transition to the unified system of credits accepted in international practice for comparison of academic programs capacity and teaching loads of students of different higher schools of Latvia and leading countries of Europe. A credit point is a unit of capacity (in terms of contact hours) of academic courses or other kinds of student activities, practical training included.
