Ljubljana – The Constitutional Court has stayed in an unanimous decision the implementation of a provision from one of the coronavirus stimulus packages that extends accreditations to higher education institutions until it comes up with its final ruling on the matter.
The provision relates to the 2016 changes to the higher education act, which introduced stricter conditions to establish a higher education institution, and stipulated that it is examined whether the existing institutions meet these conditions when their accreditations are due to be extended.
Under the changes, a higher education institution needs to get its accreditation extended by the National Agency for Quality in Higher Education at least every five years.
