Project outcomes and outputs

The first outcome of the project will be the definition of standards for quality assurance (QA) and requirements for quality of study programmes (SPs) in partner countries (PCs) consistent with the European Standards and Guidelines (ESG) for internal QA of higher education institutions (HEI).

The definition of SP quality requirements will be the starting point for the identification of information and data for the QA of SPs in PCs, which will constitute the second outcome of the project.

Definition of quality requirements consistent with the ESG and identification of information and data for the QA of the SPs in PCs will be the outcomes of the first year of the project activity.

The definition of methodologies and procedures for the definition, collection, elaboration and documentation of the identified information and data will be the first outcome of the second year of activity.

The identified methodologies an procedures will constitute the basis for the identification, on one side, of the university responsibilities and facilities needed to manage the identified information and data according to the identified procedures and, on the other side, for the design and production of the software for their on-line management.

Definition of methodologies and procedures, university responsibilities and facilities for the definition, collection, elaboration and documentation and design and production of the software for the on-line management of the identified information and data will be the outcomes and output of the second year of activity.

Finally, implementation of the positions of responsibility and of the facilities for the management of the identified information and data and implementation of the software for their on-line management in all the partner universities will be the main outcomes of the third and last year of the project.

The achievement of the project objectives, which will be possible with the support of European partners which have positive experience in this area, will give a further contribution to the realization of priorities in QA for higher education and implementation of the Bologna process in the PCs.
