Austria - Setting clear roles and responsibilities

In Austria the responsibility for QIBB lies with the three institutional levels: schools, regional inspectorate/board, General Directorate for VET in the Austrian Federal Ministry for Education, Arts and Culture. Close cooperation between all levels is crucial.

In QIBB, persons in leading positions assume responsibility for the quality process: principals of schools and colleges, school inspectors, and the heads of department at the GD VET are responsible for strategic tasks within QIBB. Quality project managers are responsible for operational tasks at school and at regional level.
Agreement regarding the future development and implementation of objectives is reached by way of communication between the key actors on the respective levels.
