The Eaquals Inspection Schemes

The Eaquals Inspection Scheme is based on a principled and effective methodology, which combines direct observation of all aspects of the language centre’s activities with inspection of documentation and other evidence. 

Eaquals inspections can be conducted in three formats a site visit, a blended inspection combining a site visit and an inspection online and an online inspection. Eaquals inspections are conducted by 2 inspectors and they generally last 2 days (3-4 days in the case of larger centres).

Inspectors look for evidence that all services provided by the language centre meet the Eaquals Quality Standards and verify that all the promises made to students, staff and other stakeholders are respected. The Scope of the Inspection – Find out more below.
