Registration will be free for the upcoming event organized by EQANIE and partners on 22-23 September 2011 at Lake Como,...Programme accreditation: The ASIIN panels dealing with accreditation procedures are the Accreditation Commission for Degree Programmes, Technical Committees and the Board of Complaints as permanent panels, and the Audit Teams as case-related panels.
Systems accreditation: The ASIIN panels dealing with system accreditation procedures are the Accreditation Commission for Quality Management Systems and the Board of Complaints as permanent panels, and the Audit Teams as case-related panels.
Honorary members of the permanent panels are always appointed for a personal term.
The honorary members of the Audit Teams, i.e. auditors, are nominated on a case-by-case basis and according to their expertise from a pool of auditors maintained by ASIIN e. V. for the conduction of individual accreditation procedures.
As a basic rule, ASIIN e. V. refers to recommendations from member organisations and third party organisations in Germany and Europe when accepting new members into the auditor pool and into the technical panels (e.g. recommendations from faculty conferences and associations, specialist societies, industrial organisations, associations and umbrella organisations of social partners). Individual applications are usually not taken into consideration. For positions of student representatives ASIIN e. V. refers to recommendations from the student accreditation pool.
The candidates for panel work at ASIIN e. V. are kindly asked to submit the presentation form. By sending the compiled form, prospective auditors declare their consent to be asked for support when their expertise is needed in an accreditation procedure. The form facilitates the work of the ASIIN decision-making bodies by presenting the key personal information in a comparable and clearly arranged manner. Personal data is naturally treated as confidential.
ASIIN e. V. will assume travel and accommodation expenses incurred by honorary panel members when working for the agency. In addition, auditors of an accreditation procedure will receive remuneration for their work with ASIIN e. V.
