1. Aim, Tasks and Planned Results of the Program
The professional master study program “Archive Studies” is currently the only study
program in Latvia, where archive workers of different levels, specialists of institutions and
companies having higher education, whose work is related to archiving of documents can
obtain a professional Master’s degree appropriate to their competences.
The aim of the study program is to ensure successive integrated professional master
archive studies for the individuals working in the field of archiving in order to train
specialists with theoretical comprehension about research topicality of contemporary fields
of science as well as their link with particularity of archive work; to develop creation of
academic and professional competences appropriate to the theory of archive studies.
The tasks of the program are:
1) to impart deepened theoretical knowledge in archive studies and related fields of
sciences (auxiliary disciplines of history, social sciences, etc.);
2) to develop skills of analysis and abilities of research and evaluation of archive
documents appropriate to contemporary methodology;
3) to deepen and widen competences of archive workers for implementation of IT
technologies in systematization of documents, creation of data bases, storage and
protection of documents;
4) to ensure acquisition of integrated management theories, project development, and
pedagogy and psychology of law to stimulate communicative potential of students as
well as their competitiveness in the labor market;
5) to promote development of students scientific skills, to facilitate their possibilities in
creative, scientific research work motivating them to continue the studies for a doctor’s
degree.
Anticipated result: improved intellectual, professional and practical competences of
archive workers, that ensure their knowledge and skills to individually trace, formulate,
analyze and discover theoretical and practical solutions in archive work: ability to apply
acquired theoretical knowledge and research skills in scientific research and in
popularization of archive documents; skills to create and administrate systems of archive
documents, to stock documents, thus ensuring storage, accessibility and usage of collected
documents; comprehension about professional ethics and archive documents system
operation in compliance with legislation.
2. Program Organization
Implementation of the study program at Rezekne Higher Education Institution is
regulated by RHEI Senate accepted regulations On RHEI Academic and Professional and
Study Programs. Organization and management of the study program is performed by the
director of the study program. His activities are regulated by the regulations On the Study
Program Director at Rezekne Higher Education Institution.
Professional master study program Archive Studies is licensed on 09.06.2005 for three
years (see Appendix No.2 for the copy of license). Practical implementation of the study
program has started in January 2006, except the group of part-time students. The second
group of students has begun full-time studies on September 1, 2007.
Currently changes have been made to the part-time studies program in comparison with
the program, which has been introduced for the licensing, changes are as follows:
1) students requested to include the study course Banks and their Documentation in the
module of the theoretical part,
2) in order emphasize integration of related fields of sciences in archivist’s competences,
several closely related, but small in the sense of volume courses were combined:
Management Theory and Management of Archive Work, Record Keeping and Documents
Management, Global Communication and Intercultural Communication, Administrative
History of Latvia, State Power and Administration Institutions History, History of Latvia
State and Law, Courses of elective module were changed too (see the study program in
Appendix 4).
3) full-time students have possibilities to acquire novelties about the EU archives work
within the framework of ERASMUS/SOCRATES exchange programs or during lectures of
visiting lecturers of collaboration partners.
2.1. Compliance of the Curriculum with the Aim and Tasks of RHEI
The aim of RHEI is to impart students academic and professional higher education,
which is competitive in the European education space and complies with the science
development level as well as Latvian culture traditions, to develop culture, science and
education in Latgale region and thus in all Latvia. The aims and tasks fully comply with
higher education institution strategy. European Higher Education ministers communiqué,
accepted in Bergen in 2005, determine that accessibility towards higher education should
be widened – “appropriate conditions for students should be made, so that they could
successfully graduate…”. Bologna declaration states that only acquisition of a Master
degree is higher education. Hence the offered study program from the point of view of
RHEI and Latvia state interests should be valued as topical for all specialists who work in
the sphere of archiving in Latgale and Latvia. Currently there are 600 workers of archives
in the Republic of Latvia, basing on the data gathered by the State Archive of Latvia, and a
majority doesn’t have professional higher education and a qualification in the
corresponding field. Special archive workers education with qualification – 4 historians-
archivists, 3 archivists–record keepers, who have obtained education at Moscow Institute of
Archive studies in the 1980s and earlier. 10-12 people have obtained qualification
certificates in courses for archive workers, which once were organized by Moscow
National Economy institute, or during probation abroad. A majority of the persons working
in state archives and a few persons working in institutional archives have acquired the
knowledge and skills of archiving in courses, some students have acquired an archive
studies course within bachelor study programs at LU or RHEI, including archive practice.
Thus the offered master study program:
1) ensures succession of professional education for the individuals working in the
field of archiving;
2) integrates theoretical knowledge and the latest methods of research in archive
studies and auxiliary sciences of history, as well as in management science,
communicative sciences, economics, informatics, juridical, pedagogical and other
sciences,
3) is flexible, follows demand in Latvia and the EU labor market,
4) anticipates to engage lecturers from RHEI collaboration universities in
implementation of the study program.
Study plans of professional master study program “Archive Studies” ensure free
choice of study modules, topics of research and methodology. (see Appendix No.5 Study
Plans).
2.2. Operation of the Internal Quality Mechanism of the Study Program
The internal quality mechanism of the professional master study program “Archive
Studies” is developed basing on Control System of Studies Quality Evaluation at Rezekne
Higher Education Institution (htpp://staff.ru.lv/senata_lemums_2005.02.28.doc). The
quality system of studies divides the following spheres:
1. Compliance of the study process with RHEI development strategy.
2. Quality of academic staff.
3. Quality of the study program.
4. Quality of collaboration between applicants and graduates.
5. Quality of the study process.
6. Quality of infrastructure.
7. Financing and quality of economic activities.
Evaluation of the quality of the academic staff, program, and study process is
considered to be important in the internal quality system of the study program “Archive
Studies”, these are controlled by normative acts, persons involved in the quality evaluation
process, revealed by the scientific researches of students and lecturers and the results of the
study process.
The quality of the academic staff is determined by:
- its quality conformity to the requirements of normative acts,
- activities of scientific work, results,
- professional competence, creativity (see chapter 8).
The criteria of the quality of the study program are as follows:
- clarity of the aims and tasks of the study program, its approachability, conformity to
RHEI development strategy (see chapters 1 and 2),
- conformity to the content of the LR education and academic education standards,
other normative acts of the EU, flexibility and variety for development of the study
program (see chapters 3 and 6),
- observation of the democracy principle in management of the study program, and
interrelations of students and academic staff (see subchapter 7.4.), methodological
(including study course programs, and calendar thematic plans), informative and
materially technical provision (see chapter 9),
- annual self-evaluation of the study programs, discussing pros and cons, changes and
development possibilities as well as improvement of the study programs (see
chapter 12),
- contribution of the study program director to the management of the study program
(see chapter 2 and subchapter 2.1.).
The quality of the study process in RHEI quality mechanism is evaluated by the
following parameters:
- load of studies, organization of independent work – planning, amount, kinds of
tests, etc.; possibilities of consultations; innovative study process methods, clear
format of the results anticipated in the studies, solution of problems, application of
new information technologies (see chapter 5),
- fairness of assessing knowledge and skills; usage of these results for improvement
of the study process. (see chapter 4),
- involvement of students in scientific research work (topicality of the theme and
relation to the content of the program), contests of students’ scientific works
(awards, prizes, special grants), creative activities (see sub-chapters 7.6., and 8.4.),
- international collaboration, students exchange with other universities, possibilities of
students practice in Latvia and abroad (see sub-chapter 10.2).

(see Appendix No.16, 12. for Study Course Programs and Practice Guidelines)
The compulsory module “Traditional Aspects and Novelties in Archive Studies”
including the theoretical study courses in archive studies (40 CP) comprises 50% of the total
volume of the program, the professional specialization module “Archivist and Society” (33
CP) comprises 41,25% of the total volume of the program, but the elective courses of 7 CP
in total comprise 8,75% of the study program volume.
The courses included in the theoretical (compulsory) part of the program impart
knowledge about archive studies, outline its field of operation, discuss tendencies and
problems of contemporary archive studies development, and strengthen innovative
theoretical knowledge and methodology skills respecting particularity of contemporary
archive studies.
Archive workers, who meet with the vertical limit of information on daily basis
between the generations and in comparatively narrow territory are offered to consider
information stream in the horizontal level – between peoples and cultures, it is offered by
the analytical course “Global Communication and Intercultural Communication”. The study
course allows to comprehend the tendency of globalization, its impact on world society as
well as to impart knowledge about theories of information society.
Since nowadays different historical documents are selected and prepared for
publishing, the courses of auxiliary disciplines of history as Paleography, Archaeography
are included and they are closely related to archive studies while the usage of ancient
historical documents and edition of documents of different ages are impossible without
acquisition of these courses. State administrative and law history knowledge is also an
essential precondition for systematization of provided information as well as an ability to
orient oneself in the collection of archive documents.
Particularity of Master paper is related to the basic conception of the program – to
ensure successive integrated theoretical knowledge and practical skills of archive work, as
well as comprehension of regularities about contemporary fields of sciences and their link to
particularity of archives, therefore development and defense of a Master thesis is one of
compulsory conditions for successful acquisition of the study program (25% from the total
volume of courses).
Considering the particularity of archive studies – its tie relationship with closely
related sciences, a research problem advanced in the Master paper is discussed in complex
and research methods of humanities and social sciences are used. General guidelines of
Master paper development can be found in Methodological Guidelines for Bachelor, Master
Paper Development. Rezekne: Rezekne Higher Education Institution, 2004. (see also
http://www.ru.lv/index.php?lang=lv&p=3&p2=309). Methodological recommendations for
development of Master paper for archive studies program (available in philosophy
department).
The professional specialization module “Archivist and Society” (18CP) is developed
in two parts taking into consideration that students previous higher education differs in
content. Acquisition of 12CP is compulsory to ensure the unity of archiving theory and
practice in work with documents and clients. The compulsory part of the module comprising
22,5% of the total volume of the study program includes the courses which not only
consolidate theoretical knowledge, but also practically ensure the implementation of master
students’ scientific research, creative activities and professional ethics (see chapter 5). In the
selective part (5 CP) students choose the study courses of various branches of science being
the most appropriate to widening and deepening their professional competences.
It is compulsory for all students to have the module ensuring practical skills of
archive work (16 CP). The module in general is tended towards more flexible application of
archivist’s competences in the labor market. The practice module anticipates research and
qualification practice (6CP) of master studies in compliance with the standards of the 2nd
level higher professional education as well as professional practice of 10CP according to
licensing regulations. Practice comprises 20% of the total volume of practice. During the
practice students have to get introduced with the entire operation of archives as well as to
develop skills and abilities that were not acquired during previous work. A part of the
practice time can be used for making researches about problems put forward in the Master
paper. Practice documents should be arranged in compliance with methodological
guidelines about practice in professional master study program “Archive Studies” (see at
History and philosophy department).
Students can develop the elective module according to their previous education,
work obligations or interests. One can choose either from the study courses offered by the
department (see the program), or from any courses of other fields of sciences offered by the
faculty of RHEI.
4. System of Evaluation
The knowledge assessment system is determined by the Regulations on the State
and Final Examinations at RHEI (http://staff.ru.lv/senats/nolikumi), as well as regulations
on examination and testing session procedure at RHEI
(http://staff.ru.lv/macibu_dalas_informacija).
Evaluation is done in qualitative (verbal) system (seminars, discussions, tests) and
quantitative system (marks) – exams, differentiated tests, final tests. Since the study courses
included in the master program anticipate development of research skills, a great role is
devoted to students’ individual work, preparation of reports, multimedia presentations,
analysis of documents, and schemes. Work forms of the definite practical work are assessed
complex – basing on qualitative and quantitative parameters.
The criteria for assessing knowledge as well as forms of testing in the study courses
are determined by the lecturers, registering it in thematic plans (according to the program
approved in the department meeting).
Evaluation of students’ knowledge can be theoretically divided into two stages:
formative and summative (resumptive). Formative evaluation provides feedback to lecturers
and students about the organization of the further study process. The evaluation gives
information to the participants of the study process, but doesn’t affect the status of students.
It encourages students to supplement knowledge, but allows to reason the usefulness of the
chosen methods; shows how the study course is acquired in general. This kind of evaluation
(tests, exams) approves achieving the aim. Application of summative forms of evaluation
(tests, reports, software, etc.) helps the lecturer to evaluate the level of acquisition of a
definite topic or the entire study course.
History and philosophy department has developed criteria for evaluating students’
research skills, practice, as well as Master paper development results.
The system of evaluation is developed basing on the results of students
questionnaires (for information see http://staff.ru.lv/Mācībudaļa/aptauja “No sesijas līdz
sesijai”). Basic principles of assessing students’ achievements are common to all the study
programs implemented at Rezekne Higher Education Institution:
principle of summing positive achievements;
principle of obligation of testing;
principle of evaluation criteria and clarity;
principle of variety of assessment forms;
principle of testing accessibility.
The requirements for a definite study course are determined by the lecturer in the
particular programs and calendar thematic plans. They anticipate practical work of students
during lectures, independent work, as well as the requirements for the test or exam which
make the final assessment of the exam (test). Traditionally 60% of requirements are
devoted to the assessment of knowledge demonstrated during the exam or test, while the
rest 40% make fulfillment of requirements of the practical lessons: a research of theoretic
cognitions, a presentation or an activity (creation of exposition, participation in the
conference). Usually a lecturer chooses a written form (test, document, scheme of analysis,
review, etc.) to prepare students during the study courses and it comprises 20% of the final
result of a differentiated test or exam. Such practical works mobilize students for deepened
research of the problem systematically, while it makes a lecturer to assess students’
academic/professional competences and knowledge more objectively.
Tests are organized in an oral and written form, and then they are advanced towards the
definite discourse analysis of problematic situations of the archive studies; paying respect
to master’s experience, discussion skills about a definite issue. When offering the
requirements of the particular study course, a lecturer considers the usefulness of
development of research skills in drafting a Master paper, and stimulates the involvement
of students in archive research projects. Theoretical knowledge acquired in the study
courses is integrated into other study courses.
5. Practical Implementation of the Study Program
Practical implementation of the study program is determined by LR Higher Education
Law, RHEI Regulation on Academic and Professional Studies and Study Programs.
(http://staff.ru.lv/senats/nolikumi).
Lecturers from RHEI Faculty of Humanities and Law, the Department of History
and Philosophy, International and Public Relations Offices as well as from the Faculty of
Engineering, Computer sciences department, Faculty of Economics, Management
department and Faculty of Pedagogy, Pedagogy and psychology department are engaged in
implementation of the study program (see subchapter 8.2.). The lecturers from Daugavpils
University and professionals from the State Archive of Latvia are invited too. Collaboration
with lecturers from foreign universities is planned to be implemented in the next study
year.
Currently part-time and full-time studies are implemented. Full-time students obtain
20 CP a semester, part-time students – 16 to 20 CP. If full-time studies are taken, duration
of studies is 4 semesters, and a bit more than two semesters are devoted to acquisition of
theoretical and specialization courses, an incomplete semester to practices, and the final
semester is anticipated for development and defense of the Master paper. There are 5
semesters of part-time studies where a student acquires less than 20 theoretical or practical
credit points per semester. Study plans can be found in Appendix No.5
40% of contact hours and 60% of individual work comprise 1 credit point of full-
time studies, consequently in part-time studies this is 25% and 75% (see Appendix No.6
List of Study Courses of Professional Master Study Program “Archive Studies” and
Methodological Recommendations for Organization of Independent Work at RHEI;
http://staff.ru.lv/mācību_dalas_informacija).
The procedure of full-time studies is planned at weekends (~ 8-10 contact hours a
week), and once or twice a week at weekends for part-time students; their forms depend on
the peculiarities of a particular study course (see Appendix Chronogram of Studies).
Students acquire 2 or 3 study courses at a time. Tests are organized within limits before
beginning new courses. Thus, the implementation of the study course respects the thematic
and time unit of the module to be acquired.
Lecturers of all study courses anticipate to balance lectures and practical lessons
(seminars, discussions, colloquiums, presentation of projects, writing of creative essays,
role plays, simulations, and other elements of interaction). Diversification of the content
helps to adapt theoretical knowledge to practical skills, to ensure the variety of approaches
and solutions, as well as develops an ability to respect the particularity of the addressee.
The role of interaction elements in the study process is very topical for master students of
archive studies, since the sphere of their professional activity is related to the process of
communication and research presentation. Lecturers’ individual consultations pay an
important role for encouraging the development of original researches. E-mailing is also
widely used for contacting master students and consulting on individual questions.
Lecturers try to give comprehensive tasks for independent work and gradually prepare
teaching methodological aids. Some of them use the aids, for example, I. Feldmane, who
also uses her publications about the study courses for discussing the issues (prof.A.Ivanovs,
mg. hist. I.Šķinķe etc.).
Great attention is paid to the use of the latest information technologies in the study
courses: master students work in data bases, carry out analysis of documents text. Lecturers
use audiovisual materials and multimedia presentations for teaching theory.
The academic staff involved in implementation of the study course carry out various
research projects (see appendix No.17 Academic Staff CVs). It helps to renew and to
develop study courses supplementing them with the latest methods and cognitions as well
as to involve students in research activities.
A group of master students from LR Ministry of Foreign Affairs archive were
involved in an exhibition of archive documents in honor of the 15th anniversary of Latvia
independence renewal and international recognition in 1991. There was conducted search
and selection of documents, there were written annotations and materials exposed on
stands. The exhibition was opened on September 27 in Riga Aspazijas bulvaris 20, in the
gallery “Riga”, where participated such persons the minister of foreign affairs of Latvia,
former ministers of foreign affairs of Latvia and representatives of foreign embassies. The
exhibition proved that the materials were selected reasonably and arranged successfully.
According to master students’ opinion the knowledge and skills acquired in the course of
archeography were extremely useful. The master students also fulfilled the duties of
excursion guides.
Considering the particularity of researches of the Department of History and
Philosophy as well as students’ researches is directed to the research of issues of integrated
history and archive studies. Observation of innovative methodological principles in
development of master students’ scientific works is emphasized.
Various themes of master theses will give contribution to solving theoretical and
practical issues of archival science: “Development of Quality Management System and
Implementation in the State Zonal Archive of Valmiera”, “Classified Information –
Problems and Solutions in National Legislation”, “Evaluation of Consular Documents as a
Part of Archive Fund of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Latvia: Terms of
Storing”, “Improvement of Function of Archives Inspection Control to Ensure
Accountancy of Documents and Order of their Usage”, “Legal Aspect of Documentation of
Education Institutions – Experience and Perspective” and others.
The Faculty of Humanities and Law annually hold an international students’ scientific
conference “We in Time, Space, Development”, where the students of professional master
study program “Archive Studies” will participate approbating the cognitions on the
mentioned topics. The conference is traditionally supported by bachelor and master
students from Kaunas Vitautas Magnus University, University of Siauliai, LU, DU, and
RTEMA.
The most active master students participate in other conferences, representing archives
where they work in, they also participate in international conferences and seminars. Master
student S. Igaune has participated in an international congress of archivists in Spain, in
April, 2007 master student M.Šāvēja participated in an international conference devoted to
the problems of archive studies of publishing diplomatic documents in Dublin.
6. Perspective Evaluation of the Study Program
Bologna declaration is the basis of inclusion in the EU education space, which
anticipates implementation of studies succession, as well as the length of studies,
conformity of credit points at higher education institutions. The model of studies (3+2) in
academic studies of Latvia is implemented at LU; the same model is also implemented at
higher education institutions of university type in Poland, Estonia, and France. The
professional master study program is grounded on the conformity to the orientation of
Bologna declaration to:
- link of studies to the labor market is confirmed by the offered study courses Writing
and Submission of Projects, Professional Ethics, Information Systems of Electronic
Documents, etc., which allow to acquire definite practical skills for writing projects,
their implementation, particularity of the ethic style of archive workers;
- integrated study programs, introduced by the following study courses: Banks and
their Documentation, Administrative and Municipality Law, Archive Pedagogy;
- inclusion into the EU education space, thus there are offered study courses Global
Communicative Problems and Intercultural Communication, practice possibilities
in foreign archives, which promote more intensive students’ exchange, as well as
widened the range of their research.
Accordingly, it increases the competitiveness of students, efficiency of usage of
human resources and facilitates development of a regional higher education institution,
because at the moment this professional master study program is unique at higher education
institutions of Latvia.
It is developed basing on the requirements of LR Education Law, Law on Higher
Education and MK regulations No. 481 “Regulations on the Second Level Professional
Higher Education State Standard”, as well as “Law on Archives” (accepted in 1991),
considering the conception of the new Law on Archive (accepted in the Cabinet of
Ministers as basic on February 10, 2004). Particular content of the program was based on
the profession standard. See the standard at the Department of History and Philosophy.
The topicality of preparation the professional master study program of archive studies
is determined by many important factors: 1) rapid application of electronic technologies in
record keeping, appearance of electronic documents and the state archive of electronic
documents, that determine higher demands for selection, evaluation and storage of
documents; 2) systematization and description of documents included in the Central
Register of National Documents Heritage (NDH) regardless the information medium, as
well as creation of electronic version of NDH, which would widen the document
accessibility emphasized in the conception of the new archive law; 3) creation of private
archives as well as anticipated rights basing on foreign archives practice „to create
untraditional archive value, including recorded verbal history as one of the archive
functions, especially in the spheres not included in operation of public institutions”; 4)
accession of Latvia into the European Union require Latvia archives to count on the EU
recommendations in the sphere of the archives policy: European Council
Recommendations for Member States No. R (200) 13 on the European policy of archives
accessibility (accepted on July 13, 2000 in the authorized meeting of the Committee of
Ministers); 5) growing interest of society in history; willingness of historians to research
civil society deeper and to comprehend the complicity of general historical processes,
especially in the 20th century in order to facilitate the comprehension of recent European
history, further adjustments of archive work and accessibility of documents for the society
by improving qualification of archive workers.
Thus, currently RHEI professional master study program is an optimal solution for
in-service training of the workers of archives, because they already have higher education
and particular practical skills, as well as knowledge obtained in various courses.
Implementation of the study program gives a possibility for archive workers’ in-service
training, especially in zonal archives and those of institutions. Development of master
papers, in its turn, will promote researches of practical and theoretical archive studies. The
issue about the creation of a bachelor program is topical in Estonia, but Lithuania provides
study courses of archive studies in the bachelor programs of historians, the same applies to
RHEI academic study program “History”. Graduates of the professional master study
program currently are a part of the archive workers of Latvia regions. Thus, there is
maintained succession of acquisition of education anticipated by Bologna declaration.

6.2. Employers Questionnaires about Graduates Employment for Six Coming Years
Employers questionnaires of current master students about employment for six
coming years of the professional higher education master study program ”Archive Studies”
showed that there is no employee possessing a professional Master’s degree in the
corresponding specialty. Employers (questionnaires results can be found at the Department
of History and Philosophy) support their employees’ studies in this study program
indicating that the improvement of quality and education are preconditions for successful
competition in the labor market. Latvia national economy development plans anticipate
raising requirements for specialists of different spheres, thus the graduates of the
professional master study program “Archive Studies” will only gain under conditions of
competition.
7. Students7.1. Number of Students Acquiring the Program
In January 2006, 11 people were enrolled for part-time studies and all of them continue
second year studies. Second year students’ studies are financed by individuals or legal
entities. On September 1, 2007, 17 students were enrolled for the 1st year full-time studies;
they have the state financed studies.
First graduates of the study program are planned to be in the summer of 2008.
7.2. Questionnaires of Students and their Analysis
Students’ questionnaires were provided in the spring semester of the study year
2005/2006 and autumn semester of 2006/2007. The aim of the questionnaire was to clarify
lecturers’ skills and proficiency of contacting with students, provision of comprehensible
information, putting tasks forward precisely and assessing students’ knowledge adequately.
Such a questionnaire was carried out because of the condition that the study course
implementation involved participation of lecturers from different departments and
universities, as well as practitioners from the State Archive of Latvia.
Evaluation of the results of the questionnaire shows that practically all lecturers are
able to work successfully with students. The main objections concerned the necessity of
consultations in the period of preparing, because unexpected official journeys of lecturers,
illnesses occasionally messed up with the plans of the consultation schedule or individual
meetings. Other objections concerned insufficient formulation of tasks, as well as fast pace
of lectures, which didn’t allow taking qualitative notes. Simultaneously students agreed that
there is enough time for doing a task, assessment of study materials is adequate to students’
knowledge, skills and abilities.
Lecturers are suggested to use more supplementary aids for visualization of the
study course content, for example, PowerPoint, different visual materials, copying and
offering abstracts or plans of the lectures as well as notes.
The most significant regulations for improvement of the study course were
suggested by 2nd year students in the conference, which was organized by History and
Philosophy Department after practice. Evaluation of the 1st semester experience at Rezekne
Higher Education Institution as well as getting introduced with the study plans for
remaining semesters and considering observed during practice students suggested:
to introduce a new study course about the particularity of archiving of bank systems
documents (introduced in the study year 2006/2007);
to organize a collective trip to the State Archive of History (was organized; will be a
tradition);
to develop a differentiated program for provision of professional practice, which
anticipate 10 CP upon licensing. Students are willing to compare the requirements of
professional practice with the EU countries experience in the training of archivists
(developed, approbation is currently in progress);
to find possibilities of studying at one of the EU universities within the framework of
ERASMUS/SOCRATES programs (accepted at the Council of Faculty of Humanities
and Law on May 8, 2007. Planned for the academic year 2007/2008);
to introduce the study course about scientific research skills, because archivists have to
orientate in various kinds of documents, ensure their analysis and evaluation;
to search the possibilities of getting introduced with archives work of neighboring
countries – Russia, Lithuania, and Estonia.
The countries of the European Union implement a fairly different policy of training
archivists notwithstanding particular recommendations, basing on previous traditions of
university traditions as well as training centers with diverse programs. Students considered
Liverpool University (Great Britain) with its programs (MARM), as well as Potsdam and
Marburg (Germany), Bratislava (Slovakia) higher education institutions traditions to be the
most popular. These recommendations resulted in active establishment of contacts with
these institutions which allows hoping for collaboration. Agreement with Dr.philol.
H.Martin from Germany is made about his participation in implementation of the study
program next year as a visiting lecturer.
7.3. Students’ Involvement in the Study Process Development
RHEI regulations anticipate students’ participation in collegiate decision making
institutions: Credit Allocation Commission, Faculty Council, Senate, Constitutional
Assembly, and Public Relations Office. It ensures students’ participation in all activities
related to organization of the study process.
All master students are employed, thus the opinion about improvement of the study
program is expressed in seminars and during the meetings with the program director and
lecturers. Students wish to attend lectures at weekends in the second half of the day was
taken into account when the chronogram of studies was being planned. After admission in
the master study program students expressed their wish to study in
ERASMUS/SOCRATES exchange program.
Students’ opinion about the study process organization can also be found in higher
education institution publication “RA Dialogi” (www.ru.lv/Studenti/Studentu_avīze ).
8. Evaluation of Academic Staff Engaged in the Study Program
Lecturers of the study program are the most important study aid available for students.
Lecturers involved in implementation of the study program know and comprehend lectured
study courses, they have necessary skills and experience to deliver their knowledge to
students as well as to get feedback about the skills and abilities of students.
8.1. Number of Academic Staff
Implementation of the study course is ensured by 21 lecturers, including 8 doctors and
13 masters. One lecturer doesn’t possess a Master’s degree, but has significant professional
experience in the system of archives work. Besides, in 1991 she graduated from Russia
State Humanities University, Moscow State History Archive Institute in the specialty of
historical archive studies and this diploma is equal to a master degree. 3 doctors are elected
professors at RHEI, 2 – associated professors and 2 – assistant professors. One doctor-
visiting lecturer is an associated professor at DU. 3 professional assistant professors are
engaged in implementation of the study program without Doctor’s degree, but are taking
doctoral studies at the moment. In total 38% of lecturers involved in implementation of the
study program are doctors.
15 lecturers from the number of lecturers are elected academic staff of Rezekne Higher
Education Institution, it is 71.42%, but 6, lecturers which is 28,58% are visiting lecturers.

8.2. Eligibility of Academic Staff Qualification for Implementation of Structural Unit’s Aim and Tasks
Taking into consideration the fact that the professional master study program
Archive Studies is unique in Latvia, but lacks lecturers of the corresponding profile, thus
the representatives of lecturers from the fields of history, economics, social sciences as well
as technical sciences - professors, doctors, assistant doctors as well as lecturers with
master’s degree were engaged in implementation of the study program. The content of
archive science which include cognitions and particular methods of history, approaches of
information and management science as well as diplomacy and accountancy of documents
determined necessity of to engage participants of the mentioned sciences in implementation
of the program. Physical maintenance of documents cannot be imagined without
participation of national scientists-chemists, as well as rapid transition to electronic carriers
of information – without engagement of computer specialists.
The discipline of archive science and history is represented by 8 lecturers, social
sciences – 7, pedagogy and psychology – 3, art – 1 lecturer, natural sciences (chemistry) –
1 and engineering science – 1 lecturer. The study course of archive studies is managed by a
graduate of Moscow State Institute in history archives, who is the only person in Latvia,
who has obtained a doctoral degree in history, and is elected in the position of an associated
professor at DU - Aleksandrs Ivanovs. He also lectures Archaeography course, because he
is an author or co-author of many publications of archaeographic character. The special
study courses of archive studies about management of archives, accountancy of documents
and systematization are read by practitioners together with theoreticians, for example,
management theory and archive management (E.Eglīte and D.Bērze), accountancy of
documents (A.Puzule and I.Feldmane). Preventive protection of documents is lectured by
the head of the State Archive of Latvia M. Sprūdža, who participates in international
archivists’ conferences, meetings on the regular basis and has specialized in problems of
preventive prevention of documents. Acquisition of Latvia administrative and law history
is provided by historians – professor K. Počs and master P. Kivrāns (LU doctoral student of
history), skills of archive pedagogy are read by I. Šķiņķe who is the author of many articles
in this sphere.
Doctor of art D.Hanovs provides a study course, which reveals globalization
tendencies of contemporary society in culture of communication, V. Čakša reads lectures
of professional ethics.
P. Grabusts lectures application of IT in archives, including metadata, electronic
catalogue, information system and skills of creation data bases to master students; he is one
of the people who has a doctor’s degree in this sphere at Rezekne Higher Education
Institution, he is the author of many publications of the field. Lecturers of the Faculty of
Economics, who are involved in implementation of the study program - R. Liepiņa and L.
Svarinskis, as well as assistant professor A. Puzule (doctoral student) and I. Graudiņa have
proved themselves in the academic and professional sphere. Juridical problems are solved
by the doctor of juridical science G. Makarova and other lecturers.
All lecturers in the spheres of their researches have at least several publications.
(See CVs and List of Publications of Academic Staff in appendices No.17 and 11).

8.3. Policy of Academic Staff Selection, Renewal, In-service Training and Development for Six Coming Years
It could be possible to involve 2-3 master students after graduation of master studies
to read professional specialization courses in 3 coming years; after some more years
considering possibilities of practice and doctoral studies abroad, first doctors of archive
studies could appear. Such possibilities will facilitate involvement of foreign lecturers from
September 2008; keeping in touch with higher education institutions of the state having
similar study programs within the framework of ERASMUS, as well as projects
anticipating the learning of experience of foreign archives. For example, in spring 2007
student G. Kraulis used an opportunity offered by the head of Exile Documents Department
of Latvia State Museum of History M. Brancis to have practice in Canada. Lecturer V.
Čakša got introduced with the organization of the study program of archive studies at
Bratislava University. Return visit of lecturers of Slovakia higher education institutions is
planned in August, 2007.
8.4. Qualification and Competence of Academic Staff for Ensuring Development of Necessary Research Skills, Theoretical Knowledge, Abilities and Competences
The majority of the elected academic staff of Rezekne Higher Education Institution
have supervised scientific works of different profiles – bachelor papers, diploma papers of
graduates of the professional study programs. Similarly, a part of the lecturers of their
faculties supervise master papers, some lecturers – doctoral papers. History and Philosophy
Department lecturers are tightly related to the particularity of the archives, they use funds
of archives within the framework of their researches, thus are able to advise and supervise
scientific research works. Professors elected in the History and Philosophy Department and
two associated professors as well as 4 doctoral students have wide and extensive archive
work experience. The department has developed and published Methodological Guidelines
for Development of Scientific Papers in History and History of Culture, developed by V.
Čakša, and it includes general and particular requirements of the fields of history. Professor
K. Počs has developed Methodological Guidelines of Master Paper Development
particularly for professional master study program “Archive Studies” with an appendix
Characterization of Research Methods. Students acquire necessary skills, abilities and
theoretical knowledge about scientific work within the study course Methods and
Methodology of Master Paper Development, which is read by professor K. Počs. Particular
skills of scientific work are developed in reports about accomplished practice; analyzing
and describing performed tasks which are evaluated by the supervisor of practice
associated I. Poča.
9. Sources of financing and provision of infrastructure
Financial provision of the professional master study program “Archive Studies”
consists of the study fees and the state financing. Study fees for each study year are
approved by RHEI Senate. The study fee of the study program to be accredited in academic
year 2006/2007 for full-time studies is determined to be LVL 500.00, for part-time
students-LVL 400.00. The planned study fee for the academic year 2007/2008 is LVL
700.00.
In academic year 2006/2007, 17 state grants were allocated to the first year students,
but 2nd year students’ studies were paid by students themselves, other individuals or legal
entities.
Students can also use social (students’) and study loan.
RHEI History and Philosophy Department implements collaboration projects within the
framework of Erasmus program, therefore students can apply for Erasmus study grants to
study in similar programs in the EU Member States; students can also apply for students’
grant, which are allocated due to rating of assessments.

Publishing House is also very important to ensure the research work. In the academic year
2005/2006 more than 3400 printed sheets of study aids and scientific literature were
published.
In 2007 RHEI has started serious renovations of the study building in Atbrivosanas
aleja 115 (total costs of the project – LVL 4.000.000), which anticipate building of modern
lecture rooms, improvement of conference hall, library, and other rooms.
10. Public Relations
Collaboration during implementation of the study program starts with higher
education institutions implementing similar study programs in Latvia and abroad (see sub-
chapter 10.2), as well as scientific, education and culture institutions of Latgale region,
Latgale Research Institute, Association of Archive Workers, Association of Museum
Workers, Publishing House of Latgale Culture Centre, Latgales Radio, Latgale Regional
Television, regional museums, Rezekne city council, etc. (see sub-chapter 10.1).
Collaboration agreements about practices of students with the State History Archive and
Latvia State Archive of History as well as Rezekne Zonal State Archive and Rezekne
Higher Education Institution Archive are made. Students can individually search for
appropriate places of practice with any state, zonal, company’s, institution’s or private
archive, thus widening zone of public relations.
10.1. Collaboration with Employers
Collaboration with employers develops in the stage of program development. When
there were discussions with directors of archives of the state, the State Archive of History
and Latvia State Archive of History about the content of future professional master study
program. The questions of volume of the study courses as well as their conformity to the
standards of profession were analyzed with the State Archive of Latvia. For its part
contacts with managers of different institutions willing to find employees who are able to
archive files, create episodically, especially before the beginning of the academic year.
These contacts resulted heads of various institutions to send their employees for the in-
service training in professional master studies. Since none of the higher education
institutions trains archive specialists, a part from people currently working in the archives
have previously studied at Rezekne Higher Education Institution bachelor’s study program
“History”, they occupy responsible positions in zonal and other archives and keep in touch
with lecturers from the Department of History and Philosophy.
10.2. Collaboration with Similar Higher Education Programs in Latvia and Abroad
There is no similar study program in Latvia. There are only shorter or longer
courses about the fields of archive work, including ABC courses. Some of the lecturers are
employed in implementation of the master study program.
Collaboration with the universities implementing similar study programs is searched
and partly fulfilled. Currently correspondence with various EU universities which implement
archivists’ study program has begun. International relations experience of the state archive of
Latvia employees is applied as well.

RHEI master program “Archive Studies” can be compared and similarities with a few
archive studies programs implemented in Europe can be traced. It can be understood that the
volume of the master program is equal to the universities of Tartu and the Netherlands, but
Liverpool University offers to obtain a Master’s degree in a year, because the corresponding
bachelor’s education has been acquired previously. Similar proportions in volume of the
study programs and Master paper in the above mentioned universities are observed. There is
a different approach towards the structure of the study program. The professional master
study program implemented at Rezekne Higher Education Institution is close to the study
program offered at Tartu University, although the program of Tartu is more detailed.
Generally the content of the courses is similar in all mentioned universities. There are
differences with the programs that require previous professional bachelor’s education; most
frequently auxiliary disciplines related with archive studies are acquired. Differences in
duration of studies should also be mentioned in comparison with the program of Liverpool
University.
11. Confirmation about Possibilities to Continue Studies in Case of Interruption of the Study Program Implementation
Rezekne Higher Education Institution has signed agreement with the University of
Latvia, Faculty of Social Sciences. See Appendix No.8
12. Program Development Plan
Development of the professional master program “Archive Studies” will be directed
in compliance with new features in work of archives of Latvia and considering cognitions
gained during work with the program. Firstly, it is influenced by the new law of archives;
embodying it will require a separate study course and changes in the content of a few more.
Dates of the activities will be determined by the content and time of approval of the new
law.
Secondly, the necessity to pay more attention to control of archives, supervision of
jurisdictional institutions, as well as training of the archive workers will appear, since these
institutions mainly “produce” (create) documents for archives. It is also dictated by the
students admitted for the first study year – more than a half of them come from archives of
institutions. A special questionnaire of these students will be necessary to make appropriate
additional courses. This issue will be solved already next year.
Thirdly, considering rapid transition to electronic information carriers, additional
courses ones.
In this field separate groups or special elective courses should be created. Since
preparedness of applicants in this sphere is diverse, additional research of students’
contingent will be necessary. This issue should be solved next year.
Fourthly, activities that are solved should be solved with greater enthusiasm and
those activities are: increase of the number and source of literature about archives, text
books and methodological materials, using RHEI resources and searching sponsors.
Fifthly, contacts with other higher education institutions, who implement similar
study programs, should be established, and lecturers and students exchange should be done.
Sixthly, already mentioned lecturers’ problem should be solved to create RHEI
program implementation core.
And finally, Methodology lab of archive studies and archiving should be created in
the Faculty of Humanities and Law.
