2018-ECA-NVAO Seminar “Institutional and Programme Reviews: Towards New Combinations”

1 February 2018, Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for the Sciences and Arts, Hertogstraat (Rue Ducale) 1, Brussels, Belgium

The theme of the seminar

A decade ago systems of programme accreditations and evaluations were the main feature of the European QA landscape. In recent years a trend towards implementing institutional reviews can be clearly discerned across Europe. Although QA systems that feature institutional reviews display a large variety, some common themes for discussion come to the fore. At the heart of these lies the reality that the quality of education rests with the teachers and students in the programmes of study. Therefore, one of the most important questions for HEIs, agencies, and policy makers is how programme quality can be assured in a system of institutional reviews.

This seminar was organised by ECA and NVAO on 1 February 2018 in Brussels. The presentations and pictures taken are now available.
