AQU Catalunya to host Smart Qual Policy Learning Forum
The Structured indicators to manage HEI Quality System (Smart Qual) project is funded by the Erasmus+ programme and aims to design a set of internationally harmonised indicators for internal quality assurance systems.
On 20, 21 and 22 April 2022, AQU Catalunya hosted the Policy Learning Forum as part of the Erasmus+ Smart Qual project, which took place in the Jeroni Granell building of the University of Barcelona.
For the past two years, together with eight other partners, the Agency has been working to design a set of harmonised indicators for European internal quality assurance systems. The project has the challenge of developing a Quality Indicators Scoreboard that will become a frame of reference for harmonising quality assurance processes on an international scale.
Today, AQU Catalunya director Jaume Valls is taking part in the closing of this forum, which has been an opportunity for the European universities and agencies that are members of the project to disseminate the results among its members and reflect on the application of the project instrument in their respective contexts.
