Abstract
Objectives
An international Nursing Leadership Collaborative covened in Japan to hold a patient safety and quality workshop for nursing students from six countries. The purpose was to measure students’ self reported beliefs reflecting sensitivity and openness to cultural diversity before and after the international experience.
Methods
A pre-post-test design was used and the Beliefs, Events, and Values Inventory was administered to international undergraduate and graduate nursing students.
Results
The group aggregate data analysis indicate that prior to the start of the workshop, the group presented itself as quite introspective and after the workshop the group reported being more sophisticated in making causal explanations about why the world works in the way it does.
Conclusions
Nursing students experienced an expanded awareness of their beliefs and values that reflect a greater degree of intercultural sensitivity for acceptance of inclusivity and diversity after the experience.

Abstract
RESUMO Objetivo: compreender as contribuições do Processo de Bolonha para a mobilidade acadêmico-profissional de Enfermagem. Método: pesquisa descritiva, exploratória e de natureza qualitativa. Realizou-se entrevistas abertas com seis enfermeiros doutores, docentes de Enfermagem, com mais de 20 anos de atuação e que vivenciaram as mudanças ocorridas na formação superior em Enfermagem pós-Bolonha. As entrevistas ocorreram nas Escolas de Saúde ou de Enfermagem das regiões norte, centro e sul de Portugal, entre janeiro e março de 2019, até a saturação por repetição. Realizou-se análise de conteúdo. Resultados: apresentam-se três perspectivas: 1) A mobilidade e a internacionalização como pressupostos ao fortalecimento do bloco econômico; 2) A mobilidade e a internacionalização colaboram para a consolidação de uma identidade europeia; e 3) Suplemento ao Diploma: aspecto fundamental à mobilidade acadêmico-profissional. Conclusão: a educação provou ser um instrumento válido para a construção de uma identidade profissional comum, considerada indispensável para o fortalecimento do bloco, no que tange a produção de conhecimentos. As diretrizes para a harmonização dos sistemas universitários e o Suplemento ao Diploma promoveram o intercâmbio científico-cultural por meio da mobilidade acadêmico-profissional e intensificaram o diálogo entre as nações, que reverberam em práticas sociais.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Objective: to understand the contributions of the Bologna Process to academic-professional mobility of Nursing. Method: a descriptive exploratory qualitative research. Open interviews were conducted with six PhD nurses, nursing professors, with more than 20 years of experience and who experienced the changes that occurred in higher education in post-Bologna nursing. The interviews took place in the Health or Nursing Schools of the north, center and south regions of Portugal, between January and March 2019, until saturation occurred by repetition. Content analysis was performed. Results: three perspectives are presented: 1) Mobility and internationalization as presuppositions to the strengthening of the economic bloc; 2) Mobility and internationalization contribute to the consolidation of a European identity; and 3) Diploma Supplement: fundamental aspect of academic-professional mobility. Conclusion: education proved to be a valid instrument for the construction of a common professional identity, considered indispensable for the strengthening of the block, with regard to the production of knowledge. The guidelines for the harmonization of university systems and the Diploma Supplement promoted scientific and cultural exchange through academic-professional mobility and intensified the dialogue between nations, which reverberate in social practices.
