The co-operation forms are: exchange of students with the University of Applied Sciences Westcoast and Agder University College, as well as courses presented in Ventspils by guest lecturers from different countries.

The study programmes have received positive references from our co-operation partners and some of the programmes of Ventspils University College are developed taking into consideration the experiences of other universities.

In 1999/2000 Ventspils University College was involved in the "SOCRATES/ERASMUS" intensive programme "Comparative Translation Studies". The SOCRATES and the Nordic Council of Ministers financed the programme.
