Our services

We evaluate higher education institutions and degree programmes, thereby enabling state recognition. In addition, we conduct voluntary accreditations in Austria and abroad.

We audit quality management systems at universities, universities of applied sciences, and teacher education institutions. Through the audit, we certify the internal quality management system.

We advise universities, higher education institutions, and research organizations on issues of quality development, quality assurance, and quality management, and we conduct evaluations through peer-review procedures both nationally and internationally.

We develop quality-assured procedures for the recognition of non-formal and informal learning in cooperation with higher education institutions. In addition, we provide information on current developments and events.

We analyse quality-related topics in higher education and publish studies and analyses. In doing so, we provide impulses for the entire higher education system and its stakeholders.

We cooperate with higher education institutions and agencies in Europe and beyond. Through joint projects in accreditation, consulting, and advisory services, we contribute to strengthening quality standards and recognition at the international level.
