Welcome


This page explains the specifics for the assessment of Accreditation Progress Report for ESC50 from call 2021 onward and ESC52 Quality Label from call 2018 to 2020 in Assessment module.

Upon requesting an  Accreditation Progress Report from the accredited beneficiary organisation, the National Agency will define specific report parts to be reported on. Therefore, the Assessment Details available and to complete for an Accreditation Progress Report vary. 

Depending on the report parts to be assessed, Award criteria, Typology questions and/or the Comments section must be completed in the assessment details. 

For general information regarding the Assessment details screen and its basic functionalities, please see Assessment Details basic functionalities . The assessment of Accreditation Progress Reports follows the general assessment workflow (expert assessment, consolidation and optionally editing). 

For step-by-step instructions for the completion of the assessment, please see: 


The illustrations in the provided Wiki pages are for consultation purpose only and may not always reflect the latest implementation. 

 

Header

The header in the Assessment Details screen displays basic information about the Quality Label. By default, it only shows key details. To expand and view further information, click the available down arrow.

When you expand the header, using the down arrow, the table displayed for the overview of the assessment criteria shows:

  1. Report Parts column - displaying the Report Parts to be assessed
    • Available report parts depend on the options selected by the NA when requesting the report from the beneficiary organisation
  2. Criteria column - displays the Award criteria to be assessed per report part, if applicable
    • not all report parts to assess may require award criteria
  3. Expert column(s) - initially empty; will update automatically as the assessment is completed according to the information and scores, where applicable, provided
    • for non-scored report part(s), the column displays N/A, and the report part does not need to be assessed in terms of Award Criteria
    • one column for each expert, consolidator and/or editor involved may become available in this overview table over the course of the assessment cycle
  4. Scoring - displays the maximum scoring and will update, displaying also the calculated score, once the assessment scores were provided in the assessment
    • not available if none of the report parts requested required scoring in the Award criteria
  5. Total score indicator badge - only available if for at least one of the report parts to be assessed scores have to be provided during assessment; calculated by adding the scores provided for the corresponding award criteria during assessment

Here is an example of the expanded header for an ESC50 Accreditation Progress Report assessment, where multiple report parts are to be assessed of which one is score based, indicated by the filled in Criteria column. The expert column is empty, as in this example the expert did not yet fill in the relevant information and scores.

Award criteria may not be available for all report parts. 

For each report part that requires assessment, a dedicated tab is provided, featuring both the Award criteria Comments field(s) (1) and Scores (2) per criterion for your input . Use the scrollbar in your browser to access all information on screen. For the Award criteria to be marked complete, the Award criteria for each report part must be filled in.

Depending on the report parts requested to assess, it may be the case that no Award criteria may have to be completed.

In this case,  Award criteria is automatically marked with a green check in the navigation menu, indicating completion. A notification is displayed when Award criteria is selected from the Navigation menu, informing you of the fact that no award criteria are defined.

ESC52 Specifics

In Accreditation Progress Report assessments for ESC52 where a Progress report Host role is to be assessed, the Award criteria screen will display only one Award criterion. This is a "dummy" award criterion that had to be created due to technical reasons. No award criteria have to be assessed for the Progress report Host role in ESC52 Accreditation Progress Report assessments, but the section must be completed in order to move forward.

The Award criteria header displays instructions on how to complete it. You must mark the Award criteria as not acceptable (selecting the red X ) and add N/A in the comment field. You do not have to provide any additional information. 

Award criteria for ESC52 Progress report Host role assessment must be marked as Not acceptable and NA must be added as comment

Typology questions

Depending on the report parts to be assessed, the Typology Questions subsection may have to be completed. Use the radio buttons to answer all questions. Once all questions are answered, Typology Questions in the navigation menu is marked with a green check. Where available, the typology questions will have to be answered only once per assessment, not per report part.

Typology Questions must be answered, if applicable for the report parts to be assessed

Typology questions may automatically be marked with a green check, indicating completion, if none of the report parts to assess requires typology questions to be answered.
