Institutional Accreditation Visit at YHU
On April 17-20, experts from Estonia, the United Kingdom, Romania, and Slovenia visited YHU to assess the University’s compliance with the standards of education quality assurance. The institutional accreditation of the University is carried out by the Estonian Quality Agency for Education (HAKA).
The experts met with students, teachers, administrative staff, graduates, and employers of YHU graduates. All the meetings were educational and contributed to the development of YHU.
Summing up the results of the visit, the Chair of the Panel, Prof. Anca Greere, said: ‘The first thing that is really important, and we fully agreed on from the very beginning, is the fact that you are definitely committed to your students and staff and that you want to keep moving education one level higher and higher. And we see that progress has been made in many areas – in some, maybe more rapid, with results immediately visible, maybe in others, results are still yet to become visible, but the progress is pushing on. We appreciate the fact that you are working with HAKA on standards which are possibly slightly higher than where you situate yourselves on a national level. That, of course, means that the journey may be slightly more difficult but with more satisfaction with the results…”
We are grateful to HAKA and the Experts Panel for their appreciation of our work and valuable recommendations that help us move forward.
