Purpose of quality assurance
- Individual students have the right to demand that their course or study programme is of a high standard.
- Employers in the public, private and voluntary sectors have a need for highly trained graduates.
- The general public is entitled to be assured that high levels of taxation result in high standards.
- In a global world, Swedish higher education must retain a high standard.
