• carry out self-assessment and review of its training and management of the CDS based on the analyses reported in the annual report of the CPDS and the data provided by ANVUR, the Evaluation Committee and the Management Control Division (O.U.), also comparing itself with similar Boards with a view to benchmarking;
• to promote continuous improvement and assess its effectiveness;
• to implement the evaluation of teaching in accordance with the University's arrangements.

At Department and University level, the bodies involved in QA are described on the following pages of the institutional websites:
