Creativity and Diversity, Challenges for quality assurance beyond 2010

Following the success of previous forums, we are pleased to announce that the 4th European Quality Assurance Forum – co-organised by ENQA, ESU, EUA and EURASHE and supported by the Lifelong Learning Programme of the European Commission – will be hosted by the Copenhagen Business School (Copenhagen, Denmark) on 19 – 21 November 2009.
The main goal of this event is to provide a discussion forum centred on how current internal and external quality assurance approaches take account of institutional diversity and support creativity in higher education. Through plenary and parallel sessions, the discussion will frame these issues in the context of the ongoing construction of the European Higher Education Area.
We invite contributions from QA practitioners in higher education institutions and quality assurance agencies, students, institutional leaders and researchers in the field. The forum is an excellent opportunity to test current practices or research and to elicit feedback from colleagues and stakeholders. Therefore, all contributions are expected to seek to stimulate a discussion with forum participants.
The deadline to submit all contributions is 20 August 2009. Proposals received after this date will not be considered.
