Quality Management Approach in Qualifications Framework Implementation in Industrial Engineering

Abstract:

Currently in Romania it has been implemented the European Qualifications Framework (EQF) and its sustainability has become an impending need. In this paper, the authors propose an integrating structure, which involves a relatively large number of organizations for the sustainability of the National Qualifications Framework (CNC), while also providing quality assurance in higher education. Using quality management principles and their implementation stages as generic conceptual solutions, there have been established the specific conceptual solutions for the conceptual design of a system which the authors have called the System of Implementation and Sustainability of the National Qualifications Framework in Higher Education (SIS - CNCIS). It was then prepared the detailed design of the SIS-CNCIS for the particular case of implementation in Industrial Engineering.
