EAPAA Advisory Panel
Since 1-1-2011 EAPAA has new statutes. No longer public administration programmes can be member of EAPAA. Instead EAPAA now has two corporate members: EGPA and NISPAcee.
However, the communication between EAPAA and public administration programmes that have interest in accreditation is very important. Therefore EAPAA has an Advisory Panel. All EAPAA affiliated programmes (the former members) explicitly are invited to the Advisory Panel meetings which were/are organised during the annual NISPAcee conference in May and the annual EGPA conference in September.
During the Advisory Panel meetings information will be given about relevant developments in- and outside EAPAA on accreditation. Advice will be asked from the participants on certain issues, and changes in the EAPAA accreditation criteria and procedures will be explained.
This year the following issues are on the agenda:
- Institutional accreditation and EAPAA accreditation
- EAPAA’s internal self-evaluation
- Internationalisation
- Competences and learning outcomes
- New EAPAA website and news service
