The quality culture of the University of Georgia means the action and unification of involved parties and stakeholders: academic staff, students, graduates, administrative staff, partners and management in a common spirit under the values declared by the mission of the University of Georgia, so that development and improvement can be made possible through joint efforts.
A strong quality culture helps create an environment within the university where stakeholders actively participate in quality assurance processes, not out of obligation, but out of an intrinsic desire for excellence.
The following activities are carried out for the realization of the above-mentioned idea:
The University has a program learning outcomes assessment mechanism that evaluates with measurable criteria and ensures appropriate stakeholder engagement to ensure competency-based learning.
The main mechanism for evaluating the results of study at the university is the Program Development Council, which is created individually for each program.
The university constantly takes care of continuous development of programs' curricula in the practical direction and provision of such activities as: internships, practices, projects, portfolios, etc. So that students, while still at university, have the opportunity to learn about the challenges that he will face in carrying out his duties after employment.

Electronic means have been introduced for feedback, and meetings both inside and outside the university to share information and experiences.
