Quality Assurance by UK Universities
Every University in the United Kingdom maintains an independent Quality & Regulation Team, responsible for overseeing and evaluating the academic operation of both its internal Schools and its international collaborative partners, such as MBS College of Crete.
These departments operate in accordance with the standards and requirements of the UK Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (QAA) and conduct regular reviews regarding operational procedures, academic processes and compliance with academic standards. They analyse annual reports, systematically review student and staff feedback, and prepare evaluation reports concerning the quality and effectiveness of collaborative partnerships.
They also retain the authority to intervene in cases where the required standards of quality, academic operation or regulatory compliance are not met - including, where necessary, the suspension or termination of a partnership.
MBS College of Crete is subject to regular and multi-level reviews, evaluations and quality assurance procedures conducted by its partner Universities in the United Kingdom, ensuring that the student learning experience, academic processes, student support services and the overall operation of the academic programmes remain fully aligned with the high academic standards of the UK higher education system.
International and National Quality Accreditation
MBS College of Crete is among the first private educational institutions in Greece to have undergone evaluation by the distinguished UK body, the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA)—the official quality assurance organization for universities in the United Kingdom.
In addition to overseeing UK universities, the QAA conducts audits of international partner institutions such as MBS, to ensure that the education provided meets internationally established standards and is fully aligned with the academic level of the awarding university.
Furthermore, the QAA works in close collaboration with the Quality and Regulation Teams of partner universities to ensure the ongoing monitoring of quality and the continuous development of each academic partnership.
At the national level, MBS has been reviewed and licensed as a College by the National Organization for the Certification of Qualifications and Vocational Guidance (EOPPEP) and by the Greek Ministry of Education, in accordance with current legislation.
