Continuous Quality Improvement
Traceable improvement from data, review and governance.
This material is a public proposed criteria resource designed to support evidence-based self-study and later independent peer review where eligibility and authorisation are established. It does not certify an organisation, programme or degree and does not grant any European accreditation.
What can be examined
- Quality indicators with owners and definitions
- Use of learner feedback and performance trend evidence
- Clear internal audit and programme review schedule
- Remedial action records with deadlines and evidence
- Transparent framework revisions and publication control
Sample evidence categories
- Management information definitions
- Quality monitoring dashboards
- Internal audit samples and control tests
- Corrective action register with completed follow-up
- Version history and change approval minutes
Reporting and safeguards
Evidence provenance, reviewer independence, scope, material findings, outcome terminology and public decisions require an approved operational review process. Publishing a link to this page is not an evaluation result. Related-party ownership must be disclosed; no QUAA review involving an affiliated university can be marketed as independent recognition without genuine independence and legal eligibility.
Evidence is stronger than an unearned seal.
Use our general published framework as context for your internal quality systems.
