Assessment Methodology

SMaRT Curriculum Assessment Methodology

SMaRT curriculum assessment is the last step of our curriculum development. Both processes need to be closely linked in the ongoing development of SMaRT educational programme to meet the needs of the different stakeholders: students, higher education institutions and SMEs in the agri-food sector.
