A lot of agreements have been set up by consortia where partners have the choice to describe important points useful for the cooperation in the framework of joint programs leading to joint or double degrees. This document is a sort of framework with the checklist of important elements helping institutions to avoid problems, conflicts or loosing time to solve them. Some examples have been given just to see what kind of things could be discussed among the partners. Such a checklist has been tested by 7 countries (No, Fr, It, Sp, Po, Fi,D) and has been read by international officers, lawyers acting at the university level and academics. In the framework of Joiman, it has been discussed by all representatives of the countries involved (15).
