Abstract: In modern Higher Education, quality assurance is an important consideration. Across the world there are a range of institutional, national and global processes that institutions work with in order to ensure the quality of learning and teaching at the university level. In many cases, the focus is on assurance and compliance rather than the more forward looking element of quality enhancement. This paper explores the initial phase of an EU funded ERASMUS+ project to explore the enhancement element of the quality process. The initial focus of the work is on the partners' mutual interest in active learning, in particular the application of the CDIO (Conceive Design Implement Operate) framework in the field of engineering education. The eight European universities are Reykjavik University, Iceland; Turku University of Applied Sciences, Finland; Aarhus University, Denmark; Helsinki Metropolia University of Applied Sciences, Finland; Umeå University, Sweden; Telecom Bretagne, France; Aston University, United Kingdom; Queens University Belfast, United Kingdom.
