Recognition by UAB of teaching positions obtained in accredited higher education institutions abroad is valid and produces legal effects only at the level of UAB. Recognition of the teaching position by CNRED is valid and produces legal effects throughout the entire Romanian territory.

Recognition of teaching positions obtained in accredited higher education institutions abroad does not automatically confer the right to occupy a teaching position within UAB. Occupying a teaching position at UAB is achieved by undergoing the procedures and internal regulations in force at the date of the request. Occupying a teaching position in the Romanian higher education system is carried out according to the legal norms in force.
