Higher education in Denmark is regulated by the state, and all public institutions are subject to continuous approval and evaluation processes. The regulations define the national standards for Danish higher education and ensure that all students obtain an education of the highest quality.
A nationally established – fully independent – accreditation agency assures the quality and the relevance of higher education programmes. The institutions have a high degree of autonomy, but they are required to follow the national regulations for e.g. teacher qualifications, degree structures and examinations, including a system of external examiners.
Ultimately, in order to be accredited, every institution must measure up to standards set by the Danish Ministry of Education, which approves all programmes and institutions regularly. All bachelor programmes follow UNESCO/OECD guidelines on ‘Quality provision in cross-border higher education’.
University College Lillebaelt has together with The Southern Denmark European Office the overall project management.
The project management is anchored in the CPD, Health, Social and Management Studies. The department has extended experience in working with European projects, among others being EVARS – Elderly as a Resource for Society, Healthy Children in Healthy Families and ALTAS.
The CPD, Health, Social and Management Studies is working systematically and research based to provide the welfare professionals with relevant competences to co-create, co-design og co-produce new welfare solutions. The department has established a development and research center for co-production, and is working closely together with the local authorities in these processes.
