How to request authorisation
Since 2010, EQANIE accepts applications from accreditation agencies for authorisation to award the Euro-Inf Label on behalf of EQANIE in the context of accreditation procedures at national level.
Eligible to apply for authorisation are agencies from countries within the European Higher Education Area that accredit informatics degree programmes.
A precondition for application is that an already functioning national accreditation system is in place which is in conformity with the Euro-Inf Framework Standards and Accreditation Criteria for Informatics Programmes.
More information on how to apply for authorisation is available in the Standards and Guidelines for agencies applying for authorisation to award the “Euro-Inf Bachelor” and “Euro-Inf Master” quality labels.
