WP2: Standards and Procedures

Summary
The survey of standards and procedures, which is the focus of this document, aims at:
1. Identifying the standards used by international organizations
2. Rendering account about their organization
3. Investigating the meaning of each of the surveyed standards, its scope and its link with
other standards
4. Identifying any related condition requested by each standard
5. Drawing the major conclusions that help in drafting the first version of LQAA standards.
The first part of the survey focuses on the experience of the U.S. higher education accreditation agencies in this field. The second part of the survey focuses on the European experiences, namely those of France, the French community of Belgium, Spain, and the United Kingdom.
In part 2, the options for Lebanon are identified, and a set of standards is proposed. Only past2 has been translated to Arabic version (see document attached)
