Abstract This paper gives an overview about development of internal quality assurance in higher education institutions in Europe following the adoption of European Standards and Guidelines. It is trying to answer a question what policies and systems for internal quality assurance exist and how consistent they are with ESG in Higher education institutions in seven countries (CZ, LV, NL, PL, PT, SK, and UK) derived from 28 institutional case studies of these countries. It concludes that ESG Part 1 is finding its way into institutional policies and systems, but there is still some way to go until it becomes inseparable part of everyday quality culture.
