The system has been developed, implemented, and continuously improved based on the provisions of quality assurance in higher education laid down in national legislation (the Law on Higher Education and Research and implementing legislation of the Ministry of Education, Science, and Sport, as well as the Centre for Quality Assessment in Higher Education).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-justify\" style=\"margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:8px\">Kauno kolegija Higher Education Institution follows the approach that <strong>the primary responsibility for the quality of its activities lies with the institution itself<\/strong>. This approach is firmly anchored in the Law on Higher Education and Research (2009) stipulating that higher education and research institutions shall assume the responsibility for the quality of research (artistic) activities, studies and other undertakings. They must publicly announce their quality indicators and, together with the relevant assessment institutions, foster the culture of quality in higher education and research activities (Article 46). Every higher education institution must have an internal quality assurance system based on the Provisions of quality assurance in studies of the European Higher Education Area and on the strategy for improving activity quality approved by the higher education institution itself. The higher education institution must also have action plans and measures in place to ensure the quality of higher education it provides (Article 47).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"is-style-justify\" style=\"margin-top:8px;margin-bottom:8px\">In the process of creating and enhancing its internal system of quality assurance Kauno kolegija Higher Education Institution is guided by <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/kaunokolegija.lt\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2025\/12\/EUROPOS-AUKSTOJO-MOKSLO-ERDVES-KOKYBES-UZTIKRINIMO-NUOSTATOS-IR-GAIRES-ESG.pdf\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/kaunokolegija.lt\/english\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2025\/12\/EUROPOS-AUKSTOJO-MOKSLO-ERDVES-KOKYBES-UZTIKRINIMO-NUOSTATOS-IR-GAIRES-ESG.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education Area (ESG, 2015)<\/a><\/strong>, highlighted in Article 46 of the Law on Higher Education and Research: \u2018&lt;\u2026&gt; Quality assurance in higher education is based on the Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education Area.
