Project Impact  KAUIR used the documents ‘DoQuP standards for quality assurance of study programmes in partner countries’ and ‘DoQuP information and data for quality assurance of study programmes in partner countries’ as guidelines for preparation to the national accreditation.  The document ‘Example of Documentation for Quality Assurance of Study Programmes consistent with the DoQuP Model’ helped to collect data for self-evaluation report for the accreditation  Documentation does not assure quality by itself, but it rises awareness in necessity of quality control and standards. It also ensures transparency of study programmes.  As Kazakhstan is involved in Bologna Process, the issues of standards, transparency, comparability of Study Programmes and quality in general are paid a great attention to. In this respect, the documentation of learning objectives, learning outcomes, educational process and management system is the essential part of QA of SP.  The results of the project will be disseminated on the national level at the Tempus Projects Exhibition on June 12, The event is organized by the MES of RK under initiative of the Vice-Minister Mr. Balykbayev and the National Erasmus+ Office Kazakhstan.
