4) Employees, students and other interest groups are key contributors to the development of University strategies and mechanisms in the area of quality and standards.
5) The basis for assessing and attempting to improve the quality of all processes is the comparison of selected indicators with reference values aimed at finding potential improvements.
6) As part of its operation in the international area, MENDELU puts emphasis on propagation of good practices among partners within the framework of already existing relations, as well as on development and establishment of new partnerships that will contribute to quality development.
7) The quality policy and quality objectives are fulfilled and respected by all parts of MENDELU. All employees are involved in their fulfilment. They thus assume responsibility for continuous improvement of their part and the whole institution.
8) The quality policy is part of the MENDELU strategic management and is communicated to all interested parties.
9) This policy is translated into practice through the quality management system which is coordinated by the MENDELU Internal Evaluation Board.
