Abstract

This paper aims to reflect on procedures and processes which ensure effectiveness of career guidance in higher education within the framework of quality assurance processes. In 2014 Eurydice report Modernization of Higher Education states that the main challenges for European higher education institutions were access, retention and employability of a wider range of students (European Commission/EACEA/Eurydice, 2014). The tools that the authors of the report identified in order to face these challenges were the implementation of flexible learning paths and the improvement of guidance services. Addressing this issue imposes to understand career services design and provision as part of the process of higher education improvement. The added value of this paper consists in the essay to present a local experience as an example of ensuring quality in higher education through the evaluation of guidance processes impact on students’ employability.
