In the run up to the 2024 Bologna Process Ministerial Conference, ENQA highlights quality assurance as a prominent success story of the EHEA, while recognising that there is still work to be done.
Therefore, ENQA calls on Ministers to take action on three key issues:
✅ Ensure that national legislative frameworks allow quality assurance agencies to operate in compliance with the ESG
✅ Enable international collaboration by reducing national-level barriers in quality assurance and higher education while enhancing transparency
✅ Maintain the relevance and added value of external quality assurance by allowing quality assurance agencies to implement flexible and enhancement-oriented approaches
