Agency SAAVŠ
The agency's mission is to contribute to the improvement of the quality of higher education with modern tools in accordance with the European Standards for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ESG 2015). The agency is supposed to provide a mirror of quality to universities and decide on the granting of relevant accreditations in accordance with the law. The agency replaces the activity of the previous Accreditation Commission, an advisory body of the Slovak government in the assessment of university applications, and also takes over the decision-making authority of the Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sports of the Slovak Republic.
