Every institution with a CHEQF status is listed here with its status category, the levels it may deliver, the decision number and the date of its next review. If it is not here, it does not hold a status.

A part of the name is enough. A registry number of the form CHEQF-INS-0000 finds one record exactly. The check runs in your browser against the published registry; nothing you type is sent anywhere.

To see a positive answer, search for . It is a specimen: marked as such, counted nowhere, listed nowhere.

The list

Grouped by country. Each line opens the full record.

01 All institutions with a status

By country.

0

No institution holds a CHEQF status. The Standard is a draft; the first authorisation follows its approval, the legal review and the first external reviews. This list fills from the first decision, and every entry will carry the decision number and the date of the next review.

Legend

The five outcomes of external review, Article 22.3, in the order the panel may impose them.

02 What a status means

Five states.

  • AuthorisedThe status is in force. The institution may deliver the listed programmes at the listed levels.
  • Subject to conditionsIn force, with conditions and a remediation deadline set by the review panel.
  • ProbationIn force under probation. The conditions and the deadline are in the decision record.
  • SuspendedNot in force. The institution may not act under CHEQF until the suspension is lifted.
  • WithdrawnThe status has been removed. Individual diplomas are checked separately in the diploma registry.

Not found

The registry does not say “probably”. It says yes or it says nothing.

04 When the answer is “not found”

Not found is an answer.Treat the paper accordingly.

Every degree conferred under CHEQF is entered in the central registry by the awarding body at the moment of the award decision. Every institution with a status is entered when the decision is taken. There is no other channel: a diploma or a status that is not here has not been entered, whatever seal is on the document.

  • Ask the holder for the diploma supplement: section 12 carries the registration number and the verification address.
  • Write to office@patria.uno with the number, the degree and the name of the awarding body. Queries are answered from the registry, not from memory.
  • Until the Standard is approved and the first status granted, no diploma can be a CHEQF qualification, and no institution can be authorised. Any document claiming otherwise today is not ours.
