Evaluation Boards (NdV) are key bodies in quality assurance processes for Universities and AFAM Institutions.
They operate in accordance with the guidelines provided by ANVUR, carrying out internal quality assurance activities and supporting the external quality assurance conducted by the Agency. Evaluation Boards also perform the tasks assigned by national legislation to Independent Performance Assessment bodies (OIV).

The involvement of Evaluation Boards in the Agency’s activities is essential for the accreditation of study programmes and locations.
For state universities, public research bodies and AFAM Institutions, the relationship with the Agency also concerns performance evaluation activities.

The composition of the Evaluation Boards varies in number and includes both internal members of the Institutions and external experts.
