Comité d’accréditation pour les formations du brevet de technicien supérieur

The Comité d’accréditation pour les formations du brevet de technicien supérieur is an ENQA Affiliate.

The Accreditation Committee was established in 2010 and conducts evaluations of short cycle programmes. By decree, the Committee is composed of a President and 4 members, half of them are from Luxembourg and half from foreign countries. There is a permanent secretariat. The Accreditation committee designs the methodology and process of evaluation, sets up expert teams (with a professional, a teacher and a student) for each programme to be evaluated. The Accreditation committee conducts transversal analysis on QA and is consulted by the Ministry of higher education on higher education- and QA-related issues.

The Accreditation Committee’s status is not yet independent from the Ministry of higher education, although the evaluations are conducted in full independence. The Accreditation committee plans to eventually seek membership in ENQA once it reaches better compliance with the ESG.
