Implementation and usefulness of the OQEA project are continuously monitored and evaluated. In this way, we can quickly respond to any established deficiencies and needs for improvement. For this purpose, we have developed the following forms of monitoring and evaluation:

  • We continuously monitor the satisfaction of the members of quality groups with the contents and the organisation of training to support project implementation.
     

  • We have established a method of periodical consultations with experts who specialise in quality in adult education at Slovene universities.
     

  • We continuously monitor how educational organisations are realising individual aspects of quality; we discuss about them a lot and form them inside the OQEA model. In 2003 we have been particularly interested in the practice of organisations participating in the OQEA project to spread and present their vision and mission. We were especially interested in how much the organisations use web-sites and various publications for these purposes. We also paid attention to important differences that might occur between organisations that take part in the OQEA project and those, which do not. In the academic year 2003/2004 we also monitored how the participating educational organisations discussed self-evaluation reports in their working collectives after one year of participation.
     

  • In co-operation with the Faculty of Arts in Ljubljana, the first thorough evaluation of the OQEA model implementation into the initial four secondary schools in Slovenia was carried out in 2003. Its title was The effects of the OQEA self-evaluation model into adult education organisations.
     

  • At the end of 2004 we carried out a new evaluation of the OQEA project, which grasped the educational organisations that used the OQEA self-evaluation model from 2003 to 2004.
