Quality control and Accreditation
The Quality Assurance system of degree programmes typically consists of three parts: an internal part (self-evaluation, resulting in a self-evaluation report), an external part (organised by VLIR and VLHORA, Council of Flemish Universities and of Flemish Colleges respectively, consisting of a site visit by external experts and resulting in an assessment report) and the part where the formal decision is taken. The latter part of the Quality Assurance process is carried out by NVAO, the independent accreditation organisation set up jointly by Flanders and The Netherlands.
HUBrussel's internal quality system is ISO-based: It aims to widen the scope of the ISO-9001 certification of one of HUBrussel's constituent parts (EHSAL) to the whole of the organisation by 2010.
HUBrussel's degree programmes are registered in the database of officially accredited programmes www.hogeronderwijsregister.be or www.highereducation.be.
