The Ministers of the European Higher Education Area, which includes Croatia, adopted a number of important documents at the conference held on May 14th and 15th in Yerevan, Armenia, including the new, revised version of the Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education Area. The document will serve as a basis for the new cycle of external quality assurance in the Croatian higher education system, as well as the forthcoming external review of the Agency for Science and Higher Education.
Another important document for quality assurance in higher education is the European Approach to Quality Assurance of Joint Programmes, which will serve as the basis for the amendments to the Croatian quality assurance legislation, prepared by the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports and the Agency in cooperation with the academic community in the scope of the Erasmus + ROCCO project (Removing the Obstacles to Cross-Border Cooperation).
Finally, a new version of the ECTS users’ guide was adopted.
