In pursuit of ongoing improvement in student achievement, the Permanent Commission on Quality Assurance at Epoka University organized the Workshop on Course Design and Syllabus Development on the 26th-27th of September 2018. Two leading experts in the Bologna system and quality assurance and harmonization in higher education, Prof. Dr. Volker Gehmlich and Dr. Norma Ryan, were invited to provide instruction on the phrasing of learning outcomes and the alignment of assessment strategies with learning outcomes. Following each guests’ lecture, workshop participants worked in departmental groups to peer review learning outcomes and assessment strategies in their syllabi with respect to best practice in European education.
