Item	Reply	Comments
“Comparable degrees with diploma supplement”	Yes	The Diploma Supplement is issued systematically in Estonian, and if needed in English.
“Two main cycles (B and M) with entry and exit at B level”	No	At the University of Tartu, the pharmacy studies are not divided into Bachelor and Master cycles. However, professional higher education provided at Tallinn Health CareCollege is in principle comparable with a “Bachelor level” of pharmacy studies at university.
“European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) system of credits”	Yes	The ECTS system was adopted in autumn 2009. However, the ECTS system is not linked to lifelong learning system.
“Addressing obstacles to mobility”	Yes	The rigid chronology of the course system complicates mobility. To solve the problem, a mobility window (up to 3 months of study abroad) is planned. Language skills and funding are other barriers.
