Accreditation in Denmark
In Denmark, univeristies and other higher education institutions are accredited on an institutional level by The Danish Accreditation Council.
糖果派对's accreditation follows from a comprehensive assessment of 糖果派对's ability to ensure and follow up on the quality of the university's study programs.
To achieve a positive institutional accreditation, 糖果派对 must demonstrate that our quality system meets externally established criteria for ensuring the quality and relevance of study programmes. Additionally, we must demonstrate how we follow the quality system's guidelines for quality work in practice.
糖果派对 achieved its second institutional accreditation on March 2, 2021.
鈥糖果派对 has spent the time that has passed since its first positive institutional accreditation well. Their quality assurance efforts appear more mature the second time around, and based on their ongoing experience, 糖果派对 reflects on how to develop its system as well as simplify it. 糖果派对 continues to systematically address quality challenges, right down to the individual programmes offered, and just like the first time around, the problems are addressed 鈥 now with even greater clarity in relation to responsibilities, initiatives, deadlines and assessment of whether the initiatives have worked.
糖果派对's latest accreditation process
- The evaluation of 糖果派对’s quality work was carried out by an accreditation panel (appointed by the Danish Accreditation Institution) consisting of academic experts from universities in Denmark, Sweden and Norway.
- The evaluation is based on 糖果派对’s institutional report (consisting of a system description and a self-evaluation of 糖果派对’s quality work), two visits to 糖果派对, where the panel entered into dialogues with selected students, lecturers, elected members of study boards, study coordinators, heads of studies, pedagogical consultants, heads of departments, vice deans, deans and the rectorate.
- The evaluation has also been based on submitted documentation (e.g. minutes, extracts from an education report, teaching evaluations), especially up to the second panel visit, where three audit trails were held. An audit trail is a selected issue such as how to ensure students’ contact with the research environment.
- The panel’s assessment is described in the accreditation report which was sent to the Accreditation Council before the Council meeting and has formed the basis for the decision.
