SELF-EVALUATION PROCESS 2021
 
Pursuant to Article 103 and Article 104 of Law no. 80/2015 "On higher education and scientific research in higher education institutions in the Republic of Albania", the statute of the UC “Bedër”, and the order of the Minister of Education and Science "On the approval of state quality standards for institutional evaluation and accreditation of higher education institutions", under the responsibility of the head of the institution, Rector Prof. Dr. Ferdinand Gjana, the Institutional Internal Evaluation Group (IEG) was set up. The selection of IEG members took into account the professional competencies, impartiality, opportunities for gathering information to carry out the evaluation and the necessary degree of knowledge of the group members.
 
The group was intentionally set up for the internal evaluation mission (ad-hoc group). The IEG represents the two main units of the college, including student representatives, and it is set up taking into account the distribution of duties of each member.
 
This external institutional reassessment process comes after the accreditation experiences in 2013 and 2017, which are successfully transcended by our institution, which means that the institution has always been committed to internal quality assurance in all its structures. What is more, University College “Bedër” has also set up since its inception the Internal Quality Assurance Unit (IQAU), as a permanent unit to control and guarantee the fulfillment of standards in this regard.
 
Starting from 2012, each basic and main unit of the UC “Bedër” submits to the Rectorate every academic year end, the annual report, which is in itself a model of internal evaluation of units. The self-assessment report was discussed in each unit, from where opinions and suggestions emerged, which completed the drafting of the final report.
