The European Quality Assurance Register for Higher Education (EQAR)

On March 4, 2008, the European Quality Assurance Register for Higher Education (EQAR) was officially launched in Brussels as a move to improve the quality of European higher education and to promote greater student mobility. This register was mandated by the Education Ministers from the 46 countries involved in the Bologna Process and was established by the "E4 Group" which is comprised of the European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ENQA), the European Students Union (ESU), the European University Association (EUA) and the European Association of Institutions in Higher Education (EURASHE).
