Kenan Avdagic and Dalibor Copic will give their practical insights into how to get a quick and clear picture about the status-quo of an organisation

Following questions will be discussed:

• What are the “key-documents” besides the formal requirements to be checked to get a good overview about the organisation?

• Which further information to take into account before the on-site visit?

• With whom to talk with to get the real picture how the organisation performs?

• How to balance the workload between the 2 EFACs in order to ensure an efficient and effective evaluation?
