Programme Review

VLUHR QA has been a reliable and independent partner for years in organising programme reviews. Customisation is essential to us. We therefore tailor the review process to the demands and ambitions of your organisation. We always work with a single project supervisor. This approach guarantees short feedbackloops and transparent communication. We also consult all stakeholders during the review process to ensure support. VLUHR QA has developed a manual for organising a programme review.

For us, a programme review aims at monitoring and improving. Each review we organise takes the form of a peer review, where an independent and expert panel gives its opinion on the quality of the education or training. VLUHR QA has a wide network of experts who can hold up a mirror to all actors involved in the programme.

Every programme review follows a fixed pattern. First, information about the programme is made available. After that, the panel is composed and the programme management writes a self-evaluation. The panel then studies the self-evaluation in preparation of the site visit. During the site visit, the panel has open and constructive discussions with the various actors involved and makes a motivated and considered judgement on the quality of the programme. This judgement, together with the recommendations, is recorded in a report. This report allows you to set up actions swiftly in order to anchor the quality of your programme.

Because of VLUHR QA is an internationally recognised quality assurance agency, the report can be used for an accreditation application, but it can also be used in function of your own quality assurance policy or education policy, separate from an accreditation. Finally, we also provide a follow-up.
