The principle-based approach emphasizes best practices with prescribed procedures, provides flexible learning and also perfectly matches with the characteristics, perspectives, and styles of GenZ students.

After receiving tutorials from the PASSFR Digital Platform, Gen Z students of PASSFR HEIs are benefiting from the Erasmus+ multicultural perspective and learn IFRS® with their peers and enjoy the ability to get different perspectives.
