Structure: Committees and Technical Units

ESIC's Quality System is supported by Committees and Technical Units in which the different interest groups that participate in ESIC are represented. The Strategic and Academic Committees of ESIC are represented throughout the different Quality Committees, allowing for the alignment of strategic, academic and quality objectives.

Committees by Area

ESIC has generated two types of committees by area: Internal Quality Assurance Committee and Area Improvement Committees.

The Internal Quality Assurance Committee is developed in both the University and Postgraduate Areas.

Improvement Committees are developed for each of the academic areas: University, Postgraduate, Executive Education, ICEMD and Languages.

The committees complement each other and ensure that the area's objectives are met, as well as identifying and implementing possible improvements.

Quality Assurance Committee (Own Degrees Area Postgraduate)

Formed by representatives of the different interest groups that participate in the SGC-ESIC.

he Quality, Accreditation and Other Acknowledgements Unit will convene the Committee once before the Quality Committee is held, and after sending documentation of interest on the QMS, which must be dealt with according to the agenda. The meeting will be convened through ESIC's public website and intranet, so that any member of any interest group can attend if they wish and after confirming their attendance to the Quality, Accreditations and other Recognitions Unit.

It aims to review the adequacy of the SGC-ESIC to the requirements and review it before putting required improvements into place in the referenced system. The scope of the Quality Committee will be those degrees in the Postgraduate Area that are not managed by a Degree Committee of their own degree.

Frequency: 1 prior to the ordinary and/or extraordinary quality committee as required.
