For an education and training provider, any process or methodology carried out under its own responsibility, to evaluate its performance or position in relation to two dimensions:

  • an internal dimension (micro level) that covers services, internal staff, beneficiaries or clients, policy and internal organisation, development plan, etc.;
  • an external dimension (macro level) that covers analysis of the education offer of the provider compared to others.
