THE FOLLOW UPKeep in mind:
internal and external quality assessment without follow up does not make sense
however, there is no direct relation between outcomes of assessment and improvement;
innovation of HE is very complicated and delicate process
although many changes do not cost money, bigger changes are asking for investments

CONCLUSIONS
The answer to national developments of HEQC is the development of internal quality assurance based on self-assessment and external assessmentThe focus is on program not on the departmentThe development of good procedures (handbook) and organizational structure is necessaryAll attention for quality should be based on the importance for the institution and not for the sake of HEQC
