4.The Italian paradox

In Italy, the University and Research Assessment

is regulated by ANVUR - Agenzia Nazionale

per la Valutazione dell’Università e della

Ricerca (National Agency for University and

Research Assessment)

that has recently implemented the AVA –

Autovalutazione, Valutazione periodica,

Accreditamento (Self-assessment, Periodic

Assessment and Accreditation) system for Italian

Higher Education.

In the AVA system the expected learning outcomes for degree

courses are described as general descriptors, i.e. with

characteristics applicable to a large range of disciplines and

profiles that at the same time take into account the

peculiarities of the national higher education system.

The fundamental tool of AVA system is SUA - Scheda Unica

Annuale del Corso di Studio (Annual Single Form of Degree

Course). Within SUA, the expected learning outcomes of the

quality assessment are based on Dublin Descriptors.

The VQR (Valutazione della Qualità della Ricerca) assesses the

general quality of research products (publications & patents)

in the Universities, the capacity to recruit excellent

researchers, the number of PhD & Post-doc, success in

competitive fund raising, knowledge transfer and

internazionalization.

SUA-RD (Scheda Unica Annuale della Ricerca Dipartimentale)

reports the objectives and strategies of each department,

together with outcomes (products, PhD, Post-docs, Awards,

Internazionalization, Technology Transfer, etc.)

Accreditation of Universities will be achieved by periodic,

remote and on-site visit of experts who will assess the general

performance of the Institution (Courses, PhD, and research).

The assessment is mainly based on the examination of

processes implemented according to general ANVUR

guidelines, more than on “outcome”.

After completing the visit, ANVUR reports to MIUR and to the

University its evaluation together with suggestions and

criticisms.
