March 2011
The special review panels of the Quality Assessment Commission (CAQ) have been officially constituted, and the ex-ante assessment has already begun of recognised degree programmes to be introduced in Catalan universities in the 2011-2012 academic year.
Amongst other things, the review panels are responsible for issuing assessment reports on recognised degree programme proposals prior to ex-ante assessment. Decisions are made by consensus between the panel members, and advice may be requested from external experts during the programme review processes.
Forty-four (44) proposals for the ex-ante assessment of new recognised degrees and six (6) for the modification of programmes already introduced have so far been received by the Agency.
