ENQA - European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher
Education |
| |
| The ECCE submitted an application
for membership of this agency in December 2007. ENQA was established
in 2000 to promote co-operation among the quality assurance agencies
responsible for higher education in Europe, and to share good
practice. It was great news to hear that our application was
approved on the first attempt, and as a result, ECCE is a Candidate
Member of ENQA. The ECCE is currently working towards full
Membership of ENQA. Being part of a large organisation will do much
to facilitate the development of the ECCE and ensure that our
procedures and processes are not only current and up to date, but in
line with those operating at the highest level of quality assurance
in higher education in Europe. |
