Expert committees and panels
The selection of the members of the evaluation teams (panels and committees of experts) within the International Quality Seals Program responds to criteria that guarantee the performance of the functions of the evaluation teams to which they belong.
To ensure that the members of these evaluation teams are not associated with the higher education institution they will evaluate, a procedure for selecting and disqualifying evaluators has been established.
Technical Committee
It is the body responsible for reviewing the evaluation procedure for the International Quality Labels Program and is made up of the head of the ANECA Teaching and Institutions Evaluation Division, the head of the Quality Unit and manager of the ANECA International Quality Labels Program, academics with experience in university management and higher education evaluation processes, and professionals with experience in the various areas of the labels.
Accreditation Committees
They are responsible for issuing the resolution of the evaluations.
Appeals Committees
Review complaints regarding granting/denial of labels and processing of final decision.
Expert panels
The expert panels (visitors) are responsible for conducting visits to the center where the training program being evaluated or used as a sample in the process for obtaining the EUROINF, EUROLABEL, and WFME labels is taught.
They are composed of at least three members with experience in higher education quality assessment who represent the academic and/or professional sectors. At least one of them is from the specific field of knowledge of the program/center being evaluated.
The agreements of the different expert panels are reached by consensus, so the decision is collective. To facilitate the dissemination of good practices in the evaluation for obtaining the label, the procedure offers the possibility of incorporating national or international external observers into the visiting panel.
The procedure establishes the necessary mechanisms to ensure that the panel members do not present conflicts of interest with the institution to which the program/training center being evaluated for obtaining the EUROINF, EUROLABEL, or WFME label belongs.
