Quality Development

In the MIKA network, we set great value on quality development. The main activities connected to quality development are coordinated by Women’s Service Graz www.frauenservice.at

In order to assure the highest quality possible, we have aligned ourselves with our cooperatively developed and self-imposed quality criteria for the training course, the elective modules and work procedures in the network. Learning outcomes aim at providing orientation to participants.

Academic supervision of the training course in the form of a formative evaluation was provided by Women’s Service Graz from 2009 to 2011.

Selected outcomes
