This paper evaluates the consumption motivation regarding online learning. The research aims to gather information regarding learning engagement, motivation, satisfaction, and barriers to accessing and completing online courses. Grasping the patterns of digital course participants is vital for academic bodies and decision-makers to create and advocate for engaging online educational journeys. Collecting data concerning various factors aids in pinpointing consumer categories according to their necessities.

The article analyzes the existing technologies and means of mechanization of melon and cucumber seeds, which showed that the imperfection of existing equipment is, first of all, the lack of necessary specialized machines and leads to unacceptable rates of loss and clogging of seeds. The research projects were carried out to study the mechanical and technological properties of placenta particles and seeds of melon and cucumber, the results of which were used to theoretically substantiate the process of obtaining seeds. Experimental studies of the technological process of obtaining seeds for these crops, as well as their analysis, made it possible to substantiate the boundaries of the main operating modes of the new complex of machines.

The paper presents aspects of the indicators related to the health system in Romania. The indicators considered were: the number of hospitals by type of ownership (public and private) and by development regions of Romania, time evolution (for the period 1990-2021) followed by the detailed analysis on the year 2021 of the healthcare staff, represented by the number of physicians (dentists excluded), and of the resident population at January 1st 2021. The data used for the analysis was obtained from the National Institute of Statistics. From the results of the research, it is worth noting the division into three large categories of areas according to the number of hospitals, respectively: the developed area, the partly developed area, and the undeveloped area.

The Schengen project is one of Europe’s most important accomplishments as it facilitates the free movement of goods and people. Currently, Romania and Bulgaria are on the verge of obtaining their Schengen membership and, to our knowledge, not enough emphasis has been placed on the emigration and labour market implications for aspiring candidates. This research aims to empirically evaluate the liaison between Schengen Area and labour migration. To achieve this objective, we construct a difference-in-differences research design using data from the European Labour Force Survey. The treatment is represented by the Schengen enlargement of 2007 with Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia constructing the treatment group and Romania and Bulgaria the control group. The main results show that Schengen Membership led to an increased probability of working abroad one year after treatment occurred, as well as three years after treatment occurred. Also, we can identify the demographic category most likely to emigrate as young males in search of seasonal full-time jobs

The paper addresses the quality approach in public administration from a cultural perspective and presents: theoretical considerations on the “quality culture (QC)”; a review of the publications on cultural aspects in administrative institutions; the management process of QC in public institutions and the conclusion. As the publications’ review shows, the management of the QC must be a task of the top management in any administrative institution, to identify the factors that impede the effective functioning of the quality system and to make improvements. The paper aims to support decision-makers in this regard, by presenting solutions for a systematic and effective management of QC.

Because today, the laundering of money from illegal activities is performed mainly through the banking system, governments have developed Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance programs. Their implementation proves complicated and expensive, which is why many banks are sanctioned by the authorities with historic fines. In Romania, starting in 2019, the supervision process of financial banking institutions in the area of preventing and combating money laundering and terrorist financing has intensified, with the National Bank of Romania sanctioning some banks for their insufficient involvement and compliance in the direction of combating money laundering.
