About us

- The European Quality Assurance Register for Higher Education (EQAR) is the EHEA’s official register of QAAs, listing those that substantially comply with the ESG.
What to find
- The Register of trustworthy quality assurance agencies in the European Higher Education Area.
- The Database of higher education institutions and programmes that have been subject to external quality assurance as well as easy access to the corresponding reports (DEQAR).
