QUALITY MANAGEMENT

AND DEVELOPMENT

 In the exploration phase, occasions for discussions are identified and collected for the study program meetings and conferences. This can coincide with the participants' assessments of problem situations and general regulatory needs. In addition, the tools of the central and decentralized surveys as well as course-specific data evaluations are available to the participants for interpretation. The quality criteria catalog serves as a basis for understanding previous developments and ensuring that all accreditation-relevant requirements in these dialogs are evaluated at least once every quality cycle. Key topics can also be initiated at any time by the university, e.g. the university management or the Senate.

In the further course of the procedure, the preparation for the evaluation of previous measures of the exploration phase can also be useful.
