What is the eduQua label?

The Swiss benchmark for quality in adult education

eduQua is a nationally recognized certification that guarantees the quality of continuing education institutions in Switzerland. It is widely respected by both learners and public authorities, and currently held by over 1,000 schools, institutes, and academies across the country.

Why is eduQua important?

The eduQua label ensures that the certified institution:

  • places learners’ needs at the core of its educational approach,

  • applies clear standards in management, teaching, and evaluation,

  • is committed to the continuous improvement of quality in its training programs.

In many cantons, the eduQua label is a prerequisite for public funding.

A modernized standard: eduQua:2021

Since late 2021, a revised version of the label—eduQua:2021—has been implemented. This updated standard:

  • reflects current trends and developments in adult education,

  • promotes compatibility with other quality systems (ISO, EFQM, etc.),

  • puts greater focus on training outcomes and the participant experience.

What are the benefits for you as a learner?

By choosing an eduQua-certified institution like the Chablais Language Center, you benefit from:

  • high-quality programs evaluated on a regular basis,

  • transparent processes from registration to final assessment,

  • a learning experience focused on your goals and integration into Swiss life.

How does the certification process work?

The eduQua label is granted following an audit carried out by independent and accredited certification bodies. The certification is valid for a limited period and must be renewed regularly, ensuring long-term quality assurance.
