Finnish Education Evaluation Centre

FINEEC carries out audits of quality systems, evaluations of learning outcomes (in basic education and upper secondary education), and thematic and system evaluations.

[2] It has been proposed that the Matriculation Examination Board and FINEEC should be incorporated into the new Finnish National Agency for Education in 2018.

[1] Examples of evaluations carried out by FINEEC at different educational levels: FINEEC is responsible for the evaluation of education provided by universities and universities of applied sciences in Finland.

The three key evaluation types are the audits of higher education institutions' quality systems, thematic evaluations of the education system and accreditations of engineering degree programmes.

Higher education institutions passing the audits carried out by FINEEC receive a quality label, which shows that the quality system used in the organisation in question is in accordance with European principles and recommendations, and that it also meets the national criteria for quality management in higher education institutions.
