Quality Assurance in Higher Education and VET Olav Aarna Kutsekoda, Member of the Board 22 October 2010 Kutsete süsteemi arendamist toetab Euroopa Liit

Quality assurance in higher education Legal framework: University Act (1995) Applied HEIs Act (1998) HE standard - basic requirements for study programmes and institutions Two periods/two models: 1995-2008 (naive aposteriori model) 2009-.... (advanced apriori model)

Naive aposteriori model (1995-2008) Aim – to get rid of low standard programmes and HEIs A programme could be accredited only after at least 2/3 of nominal study period Accreditation (full, conditional, not accredited) of: study programmes (about 2/3 were accredited) institutions (very limited number was accredited) Higher Education Quality Assessment Council The model failed to meet expectations (expensive, non- efficient)

Advanced apriori model (2009-....) Aim – to develop sustainable quality assurance (QA) system combining internal QA at HEIs with regular external assessment On 1 January 2009, the Estonian Higher Education Quality Agency (EHEQA) was formed for carrying out quality assurance procedures and accreditations EHEQA has to undergo international accreditation Transition period (2009-2011) Normal functioning (2012-....)

Advanced apriori model (cont.) Transition assessment: On the basis of an assessment of all study programme groups the Government of the Republic issues to HEI, for an undetermined or determined period of time (one to three years), the right to conduct studies in the relevant study programme group and to issue corresponding academic degrees and diplomas Since 1 January 2012, HEI may issue state recognized graduation documents only if the right to conduct studies has been granted for the study programme group HEI has to undergo accreditation process every 6 years

Quality assurance in VET (present model) Licencing of study programmes in private and municipal VET institutions based on documents Internal QA in VET institutions: Permanent internal auditing Periodic compilation of self-assessment reports (3 years) Periodic external assessment by Examinations and Qualifications Centre: Based on self-assessment reports and site visits performed by external assessors No explicit accreditation

Quality assurance in VET (new model) Quality assurence model for VET will be similar to higher education Licencing for study programme groups and accreditation combined: Full accreditation for 6 years Conditional accreditation for 1-3 years No accreditation No transition assessment needed Functions of Higher Education Quality Agency extended
