On 5 March 2024, Vice-Rector for Development and Education Quality Assurance H.Kazhoyan, and DEQA Officer M. Hovhannisyan participated in the “What’s next for the European Quality Assurance Framework” webinar of the European University Association webinar series “Toward Tirana 2024, the Bologna Process and developments in the European Higher Education Area”. The speakers of the webinar mentioned that the European standards are under revision. Some standards may be added, while others may be merged. Some of them being implemented but not included deserve special attention. Director of the European Association for Quality Assurance Anna Gover noted that national standards should not be too detailed, as this hinders flexibility, e.g., during ministerial summits when standards are to be approved, such wording hinders decision- making. President of European Students’ Union Horia Onita presented students’; point of view. The moderator of the meeting was Maria Kelo, the director for Institutional Development at EUA.
