On September 24, 2021, IQAA took part in a DEQAR masterclass, in which EQAR presented the newest additions to the The Database of External Quality Assurance Results (DEQAR), the updates of the data model and the improved API requirements. Different sessions were organised for agencies with a DEQAR API connection and agencies that had not yet established a connection to DEQAR. The masterclass was attended by technical staff and IT subcontractors of registered QA agencies.
Below are the latest DEQAR and API changes presented during the masterclass:
- Added fields about the location of institutions (for example, for branches of universities in other countries)
- Added a new field in the Report for additional contributing agencies
- Added an additional field in the Report for a summary of the report
- Interfaces with Europass & EBSI for digital credentials
