(1) setting up of QA systems, where they do not yet exist, (2) capacity building and human resources development, (3) development of QA instruments and their implementation and (4) analysis and strategy/process development.
Fostering and Developing the Quality Culture at the University of Prishtina
This project addresses the importance of a ‘Quality Culture’ as a
prerequisite for a functioning and lasting quality assurance system
within the University of Prishtina.
The main objective of the project is to establish and/or strengthen the Quality Assurance Systems at ten Private Higher Education Institutions in Kosovo. The objectives of the project currently represent a top priority for Kosovo, more specifically for the Ministry of Education Science and Technology. Strengthening the QA systems at these universities will significantly contribute to improvements in teaching and learning opportunities and administrative processes. Self-assessment procedures, establishing of a QA structure (including personnel), regular activities (e.g. Quality Assurance Day) and awareness raising constitute the core of the project.
Strategic Management of Higher Education Institutions Based on Integrated Quality Assurance System
The overall aim of the project is to ensure that quality assurance becomes recognized as an instrument in strategic development of institutions and as a means of cooperation with the Agency for Higher Education Developemnt and Quality Assurance, and authorized ministries. In the long term this will support structural reform of higher education in BiH.
