Upcoming events

EQAR organises a number of fixed events and meetings per year: the General Assembly, the Members’ Dialogue and the Register Committee. Apart from these, EQAR might organise meetings or seminars in the context of running projects and/or other ad hoc events.

  • The General Assembly convenes annually, usually in conjunction with the first Bologna Follow-Up Group Meeting in spring. The General Assembly decides on the budget, approves the accounts, elects the Executive Board and Appeals Committee and approves the Register Committee.
  • The Members’ Dialogue is organised every autumn to discuss recent policy developments in quality assurance as well as EQAR’s current and future activities.
  • The Register Committee receives, evaluates and decides upon applications for inclusion on the Register or renewal of registration and takes place twice or three times per year.

The Members’ Dialogue covers recent policy developments in quality assurance as well as EQAR’s current and future activities. Thanks to the informal setting, it also serves as a forum for exchange and networking among governments on issues related to quality assurance. The event is usually hosted by a governmental member.
