Quality in TANDEM

The school members of Tandem International avail of a mutual quality standards inspection system, including interviews with course participants. There are also teacher exchange programmes. More about this on their website www.tandem-schools.com .
^{TI schools not showing the logo of Tandem Fundazioa on their homepage do not dispose of TF's didactic material.}

Tandem Fundazioa does not deal with the quality of language course offers in general. Instead, it is developing together with other institutions quality criteria specially for tandem mediation which are still under discussion. For further info, look at the literature review and at a list of quality criteria concluded by the Board at www.tandem-fundazioa.info forum. Not all the institutions that advertise themselves as 'Tandem' are prepared and trained to do it. With the help of this list everybody can prove the quality of the offers. The Tandem Award is offered for contributions to the discussion.

In the event of a lack of agreement with a school member of Tandem International, course participants may adress themselves to the quality Ombudsman. Furthermore, they may find on the internet institutions which elucidate consumer protection rights in these matters.
