In 2021 all universities of Uzbekistan have applied European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) to train well-qualified specialist in higher education. European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) is a standard means for comparing academic credits, i.e., the "volume of learning based on the defined learning outcomes and their associated workload" for higher education across the European Union and other collaborating European countries.[1] For successfully completed

One academic year corresponds to 60 ECTS credits that are normally equivalent to 1500-1800 hours of total workload, irrespective of standard or qualification type. ECTS credits are used to facilitate transfer and progression throughout the Union. ECTS also includes a standard grading scale, intended to be shown in addition to local (i.e. national) standard grades.[1]

What is the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System? The European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS) is a tool of the European Higher Education Area for making studies and courses more transparent. It helps students to move between countries and to have their academic qualifications and study periods abroad recognised. ECTS has been adopted by most of the countries in the European Higher Education Area as the national credit system and is increasingly used elsewhere.[2]

Bologna process. The main purpose in the process of applying Bologna declaration is organizing unique European higher education. Bologna declaration was signed by 29 European contries in Bologna, Italy in 1999, June 19, which formed European higher education arean (EHEA - http://www.ehea.info). Nowadays 48 countries have accepted ECTS system in order to provide transparency and mobility in education

European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) was first applied in Erasmus and Socrates programmes in 1989. It being an evaluation unit of tuition programs (module or course), it is a main thing to be recognized the educatee's success in education in case of the change of higher educational instutition and the country where education is being fulfilled.

Credit is a numerical indicator, a conditional testing unit, a contribution to the preparation for mastering the content of vocational education in each subject. ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) is a unique European credit exchange system has been adopted into the educational practice of European countries.[3]

Based on the natural requirements of public life and the economy of our country, one of the main tasks of modernizing the higher education system is the introduction of modern forms and technologies into education based on the study of international experience for the training of qualified specialists. At the present stage of development, Uzbekistan faces strategic challenges, including the further development of the education system as the most important factor in the country's prosperity and sustainable economic growth. An important step in implementing changes by decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan "On measures to further improvement of the sphere of information technologies and communications' dated February 19, 2018 has the introduction of a new credit system of education at Tashkent University of Information Technologies named after Muhammad al-Khwarizmi and all its branches.

For the first time, the credit-hour system, or, as it is sometimes called, the system of "credit hours, originated and received the greatest development in the United States. In 1869, Charles Eliot, the President of Harvard University, a prominent figure in American education, introduced the concept of "credit hour", and in the 1870-1880s. A system allowing discipline to measure in credit hours has been implemented. The credit eduction sytem is a way of organizing the educational process in which students have the opportunity to indivually plan the learning process in each semester by choosing a teacher, a subject and allocate the time of each loan (Credit-hour). In the higher education system, the credit hour serves as the basis for scheduling, calculating the average score - GPA, for determining the load of departments, teachers and students, paying for tuition and teaching, thus regulating the multilateral activity of universities. The credit education system in the process of implementation faced many difficulties associated with the diversity and, in some cases, incompatibility of educational systems. Thus, it was necessary to develop a tool that would really bring together the national education systems, make them more flexible, transparent, and educational documents easily comparable. This tool was ECTS (European Credit Transfer System), which emerged as a pilot project of the ERASMUS program and was tested for 6 years.

The main objectives of the credit system are maximum individualization of education, increasing the role of independent work, the ability to exchange experience in universities, both within the state and abroad, flexibility and transparency in the learning process. It allows you to assess the level of mastering the disciplines and the qualifications obtained on a single scale, despite the differences in educational standards in different European countries or countries that cooperate with European universities within the framework of interstate agreements.

The credit education system has relatively more advantages:

1) student attendance has increased significantly, as a student who has not collected a credit score and missed more than 5 classes is not allowed to take final exams, which will be 50% of the score;

2) the choice of subjects and teachers of their own will ensured the growth of student interest;

3) the fact that 50% of the total score is set by teachers, and the remaining 50% is decided by the final exam, which dramaticalfy affected the decrease in corruption;

4) within four years a student must earn 240 credits, which is 60 credits per year. A student who does not collect these loans has the right to retake, but on a fee basis. This factor is a motivation for the student and an honest method of remuneration by the teacher;

5) more time is devoted to independent student learning, so the student has the opportunity to self-realize and work on his own shortcomings;

6) the introduction of a credit system gives a chance to all students in the future to study in the best universities of the world, since the best universities in the world also use this particular system of education.

The introduction of a new credit system for all higher educational institutions yielded unexpected results, and also led to a misunderstanding among teachers, students and their parents. Compared with the attendance rates of students of previous years, this year has seen a significant increase. Being a student on the basis of the credit system, it can be said with confidence that not all of the above rules have been correctly applied in practice, which is why many students and their parents do not have questions to which they cannot get answers. Hours allocated for independent work, many students spend an empty and ultimately fail the final exam, and subsequently remain on a paid retake.

One credit corresponds to approximately 25-30 academic hours. Typically, in Europe, a standard academic year is 60 credits, which is about 1600-1800 teaching hours. The student must complete at least 30 credits per semester. A four-year undergraduate program corresponds to 240 credits, and a two-year master's program corresponds to 120 credits.

However, for admission or transfer to European universities, nothing needs to be recounted. The main thing is to correctly prepare the transcript (Transcript of Records), on the basis of which the receiving university will decide whether the volume of the academic load in your university meets its standards or not.

This is convenient for the recognition of diplomas or when transferring from one university to another, when the courses taken at the university of one European country can be credited at the university in another. However, it should be noted right away that it is unrealistic to transfer from an Uzbek university to a European university without losing years, even if you have the required number of credits. In other words, you cannot transfer from the 2nd year of our university to the 2nd year of a university in Europe.

Many students are now participating in the European Erasmus Mundus program: for example, if you studied for two semesters at any university in Europe under this program, then on your return, theoretically, you can be credited with the credits received at your home university. However, since the system of crediting credits is practiced only at the level of individual universities.[4]
