On 19 December 2025, representatives of the Study Quality Evaluation Centre (SKVC) visited Kolping HEI to discuss the results of the institutional evaluation and Kolping HEI’s progress in implementing the recommendations, fostering a collaborative approach to continuous improvement. The college was visited by Aurelija Valeikienė, Deputy Director of SKVC, and Kristina Sutkutė, Head of the Institutional Evaluation Department. During the meeting, the processes of institutional evaluation and subsequent activity organisation, the methodologies applied, their effectiveness, and areas for improvement were discussed. The impact of the recommendations, experiences of evaluating study programmes, annual monitoring processes and the application of incentive funding were also discussed.

The discussions focused on the new external evaluation model under development, the opportunities and challenges of using registry data, and topical systemic issues, including the development of micro-credentials. The visit became an essential platform for open dialogue on strengthening the culture of quality assurance and expectations for future institutional evaluation, including how upcoming plans will influence Kolping HEI’s quality assurance practices.
