The AHPGS is an interdisciplinary quality assurance agency, whose international work focus lies on
a) the accreditation of Bachelor’s and Master’s study programs in the field of health and social sciences and related areas and
b) the implementation of institutional evalutations, by means of which the quality standards of Higher Education Institutions (HEI’s) or parts of HEI’s (e.g. faculties) can be verified. Institutional evaluations examine various aspects of the institution, such as planned and current study programs, infrastructure, organizational and management structure.
