1 Quality Assurance in Portuguese Higher Education Accreditation in Engineering Courses CISPEE st International Conference of the Portuguese Society for Engineering Education Instituto Politécnico do Porto 31.October.2013 Sérgio Machado dos Santos A3ES
2 Quality assurance in Portuguese higher education The national Agency A3ES QA processes in progress Perceptions on impact Degree programmes on Engineering Education Trends on QA Adoption of audit models / simplification of QA processes The Institutional Audit model of A3ES Future issues and challenges
3 The Portuguese QA System New system set up in 2007 (Law 38/2007) One single Agency for the whole system - A3ES Agency for the Assessment and Accreditation of Higher Education All degree programmes to be regularly accredited (presently every six years) New programmes subject to prior accreditation All degree programmes in operation to be accredited until the end of 2010/2011 Main process: Programme accreditation
4 Present QA activities Prior accreditation of new degree programmes ex-ante accreditation initiated in 2009/10 Assessment and accreditation of all degree programmes in operation launched in 2010; evaluation procedures started in 2011 Cross-sector studies on the HE system Institutional Audit The Agency A3ES experimental exercise run in 2012; now fully operational
5 Ex-ante Accreditation Prior accreditation of new study programmes: A new call every year (01.September 15.October) Results from calls 2009/10, 2010/11 and 2011/ proposals (average 350 / year) 500 accredited 144 accredited with conditions 405 not accredited (39%)
6 The Process of Preliminary Accreditation Results from the preliminary analysis (end of 2011) programmes in operation in January submitted to be accredited by the A3ES programmes with preliminary accreditation To be submitted to a proper assessment/accreditation process in the accreditation round programmes submitted to assessment/accreditation 47 accredited 257 accredited with conditions (mostly for one year) 113 not accredited 345 additional drop-outs by institutions
7 Portfolio rationalisation through self-regulation DEGREE PROGRAMMES IN FEBRUARY 2010 Programmes in operation (officially recognised) Submitted to preliminary accreditation Cancelled by HEIs 883 DEGREE PROGRAMMES IN FEBRUARY 2013 Programmes in operation that were accredited ,1% Programmes with preliminar accreditation Accredited after on-site visit 307 Programmes that were cancelled ,9% Cancelled by HEIs ,7% With a negative decision on accreditation by A3ES 114 2,2% New programmes accredited by A3ES ,6%
8 Degree programmes on Engineering Education 1st cycle 2nd cycle 3rd cycle Total Kept in operation Preliminary Accreditation For Assessment Accredited Conditional accreditation Not accredited New programmes Drop-outs In operation Feb
9 New degree programmes on Engineering Education ( ) Polytechnic education 1st cycle 2nd cycle 3rd cycle Total Proposals Accredited Conditional accreditation Not accredited University education Proposals Accredited Conditional accreditation Not accredited Total Proposals Accredited Conditional accreditation Not accredited
10 Perceptions on Impact Portfolio rationalisation through self-regulation Enhancement in processes and resources Self-evaluation reports show improved consistency and better indicators (e.g. human resources) Follow-up reports (conditional accreditation) show interesting progresses Dynamics on the development of internal quality assurance systems
11 European Trends on QA Concerns with programme accreditation Little aided-value in repeating a round of programme accreditation HEIs become more responsible and transparent Tendency towards less intrusive external QA mechanisms - More in line with the autonomy and self-responsibility of HEIs - Stimulate the development of internal QA systems - More appropriate to stimulate the emphasis on quality enhancement
12 The Institutional Audit Model of A3ES Why an Audit process in Portugal? To support HEIs in the development of their internal QA systems (discussion, definition and dissemination of standards) To stimulate HEIs in assuming the main responsibility for the quality of their educational provision To contribute (under previously specified quality standards) to simplify programme accreditation processes in the next accreditation round.
13 The Institutional Audit Model of A3ES Voluntary exercise Well documented available documentation includes an Audit Manual and Guidelines for self-assessment and for the audit report ( Experimental exercise in 2012 (involved 5 HEI) New call in February 2013 Annual calls every November Normal validity period of certification is 6 years Expectation: most institutions will apply for the audit
14 What after the accreditation round? Lighter touch Risk-management approach Conditions for a lighter-touch approach Internal QA system certified by the Agency Good performance in the assessment/accreditation round Good performance indicators on qualification of academic staff and on R&D Programme accreditation by sampling
