To strengthen trust and impact, QA agencies must engage actively with the sector and its stakeholders, including higher education institutions, students, public authorities, and society at large. This requires communication that is clear, consistent, and visible. 💬

Furthermore, communication should not be a one-way exercise. Feedback from stakeholders must be actively sought, listened to, and used to inform decisions and continuous improvement. ✨

These are some of the key messages on strategic communications at quality assurance agencies, gathered by Alfonso Hernández Roldán, from ANECA (Spain), and Peter Brandstrup, from NOKUT (Norway).
