The IQAS (Internal Quality Assurance System) is the key instrument for ensuring the qualitative development of our degree programmes.
In 2010 the University of Girona drew up and approved the Internal Quality Assurance System for its degrees (IQAS), which sets out the procedures that support the continuous improvement of official bachelor’s and master’s degrees, as well as the instruments that ensure and guarantee the quality of teaching and learning processes.
It was designed as an institution-wide system, common to the whole university, with the aim of guaranteeing a consistent way of working in every school. The UdG IQAS, which remains fully in force, enables an organisation aligned with the institution’s quality objectives.
With the revision of the VSMA framework, the IQAS is regarded as the cornerstone of quality assurance processes at school level. This new approach makes it necessary to adapt some of the procedures of the current, more institutional IQAS to the specific reality of each school.
The UdG is therefore currently reviewing the IQAS to adapt it to this new, more decentralised vision and to move forward in developing the quality assurance systems of each of its schools. The system itself includes a periodic review procedure that guarantees continuous improvement.
The system is currently structured around 31 procedures, each of which has the indicators needed to measure its effectiveness.
