Staff members will always act professionally and embrace and display values of honesty, accountability, impartiality, confidentiality, integrity and trustworthiness. The Board will endeavour to guarantee a transparent procedure for all those involved as regards time schedule, methods and content as well as making properly prepared working materials and expertise available. As a customer oriented organization, the Board emphasizes the values of teamwork and respect for all in the timely delivery of exceptional customer service. As a service organization, it puts particular importance on providing perfect organization and comprehensive support, not only for the client commissioning the evaluation, but also for the experts and the institution or programme under evaluation.

The Board will assist higher education institutions with customized service offerings, (including audits, workshops and further education of quality management representatives) based on the process of consultation. These especially aim at strengthening the self-controlling ability of the higher education institutions. The Board considers the development, implementation and management of quality assurance as an integrated, holistic approach to organizational development.
