Benefits of EAHEA Accreditation

Improvement:

The accredited member institution going through the self-assessment process guided by the European Association for Higher Education Advancement (EAHEA) standards will learn how to further enhance its educational quality, how to improve its internal and administrative processes, and how to optimize its overall outcome.

Recognition:

Each European Association for Higher Education Advancement (EAHEA) accredited member institution will receive a recognition diploma certifying the accreditation. This status may be permanently checked by any third party at the EAHEA website.

Promotion:

The European Association for Higher Education Advancement (EAHEA) will promote its accredited members through the Internet and will forward any request to the appropriate institution. The European Association for Higher Education Advancement (EAHEA) will finally reinforce the decision process of some potential students by emailing verification of the accreditation status of its members to any questioner.

Networking:

All the EAHEA accredited member institutions aim towards similar quality and long terms goals despite their country of origin. This goal is reassured by the EAHEA accreditation they share. This fact facilitates the establishment of diverse types of international cooperation and agreements among member institutions, such as learning from other colleagues around the world, establishing academic synergies, creating cooperative global market strategies, etc.

Quality Control:

The European Association for Higher Education Advancement (EAHEA) accreditation does not only provide a warranty of academic quality, educational integrity, and administrative responsibility of the accredited institutions but also ensures continuous quality monitoring and feedback. The EAHEA welcomes complaints, suggestions, and comments related to any member institution. These comments may provide useful and quick feedback to the institution about any academic or marketing actions it conducts. Comments are also efficient to help the institution in detecting problems as well as to monitor that EAHEA standards are respected.

Conflict Resolution:

The European Association for Higher Education Advancement (EAHEA) may intervene in several ways in the resolution of conflict within the different layers of the accredited institution. The EAHEA may arbitrate disputes between members and/or students. The EAHEA may guide and support the institution during periods of serious difficulty, potential liability, insecurity of continuation, and even possible shut down. The European Association for Higher Education Advancement (EAHEA) advice will be always aimed to preserve student welfare.
