The institution consists of two entities; the Accreditation Council, which serves as the decision-making authority, and Accreditation Institution, which serves as the accreditation operator. The Council makes decisions on the accreditation of all higher education study programmes in Denmark, both new and existing.[1] The Accreditation CouncilAs the decision-making authority, the Council is an independent unit in the Accreditation Institution. The chairman and members of the Council must between them possess knowledge and experience on quality assurance, higher education, research and labour market conditions for graduates. The decisions of the Accreditation Council fall under the auspices of the following ministries:
The Council has nine members. At least one member must have international experience and one must be a student. Women and men are equally represented. The Council's decisions are made public in Danish on www.akkr.dk. OperatorsThe Council's decisions are based on recommendations from the two accreditation operators, the Accreditation Institution and EVA. Accreditation InstitutionThe Accreditation Institution is the accreditation operator for bachelor, master's and professional master's programmes. The Accreditation Institution is an independent government institution made up of three secretariats and a management team. The Professional Secretariat facilitates the accreditation of all Danish university study programmes. This involves preparation of a rotation plan for the study programmes, setting-up and preparation of expert panels to assess the study programmes, organising university visits and authoring the concluding reports. The Council Secretariat prepares the Council's meetings and facilitates its contact and dialogue with stakeholders in different areas. These include the operators ACE Denmark and EVA as well as professional organisations, universities, student organisations, public authorities and the political environment, e.g. in the Danish Parliament. The Administrative Unit reports to the director and undertakes assignments relating to communication, law, finance and general service functions. EVAEVA is the accreditation operator of professional bachelor, academy profession and diploma programmes as well as the specialisation courses (adult education and continuing training). In addition, EVA undertakes evaluations, development activities and studies of early childhood education, primary and lower secondary education, upper secondary education, higher education and adult education. Accreditation methodThe accreditation method involves a direct assessment of whether a study programme or an institution meets a number of predefined quality criteria. Accreditation is characterised by resulting in an authoritative approval/non-approval of a study programme or an institution. As a further result of the authoritative approval, the subject may obtain special rights such as the right to offer new study programmes and degrees.[1] Quality and relevance criteriaDanish accreditation involves both existing study programmes and new study programmes which must be accredited before they may be set up.[1] In Denmark, the quality and relevance of a study programme are assessed on the basis of five predefined criteria.
Accreditation may result in three different decisions:
International standardsThe accreditation method is based on the European standards and guidelines for quality assurance, the so-called ESGs. The ESGs were approved at the Bologna Ministerial Meeting in 2005 in Bergen, which set up a separate focus on professionalisation of quality assurance within higher education. The standards contain requirements for the universities, for external quality assurance and for external quality assurance institutions such as the Accreditation Institution and EVA. The Accreditation Institution and EVA are both members of ENQA, the European Association of Quality Assurance Agencies.[7] The Accreditation Institution has also been included in the European Register for Quality Assurance Agencies, EQAR.[8] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 {{cite news| title = Explanatory Notes to the Draft Bill on the Accreditation Agency for Higher Education| first = | last = | url = | newspaper = | publisher = The Accreditation Act| date =}} [1][2][3]2. ^1 {{cite news| title = The Danish Accreditation Institution| first = | last = | url = http://www.eqar.eu/register/detailpage.html?tx_pxdeqar_pi1[cid]=35&tx_pxdeqar_pi1[back][pid]=6| newspaper = | publisher = EQAR: Detailpage| date = | accessdate = 2012-03-17}} 3. ^1 {{cite news| title = New member: The Danish Accreditation Institution, Denmark| url = http://www.ecaconsortium.net/main/news/detail/new-member:-the-accreditation-institution-denmark/21| newspaper = | publisher = European Consortium for Accreditation| date = January 10, 2011| accessdate = 2012-03-17}} }} External links
