Quality guide
EADL has developed quality guidelines in order to safeguard standards and maintain and improve the quality of courses and services to ensure the credibility of distance learning. This project was supported by EU funding. The Quality Guide and the "Minimum Standards of Quality for EADL Members" were revised in 2003.
