Abstract	"This article gives an account of findings of three pilot institutional evaluations. ... It offers some thoughts on the idea that if Bulgarian universities want to benefit from the audit process, this audit should be disigned in a way that assists them to identify areas where quality needs to be strengthened. For this to take place a strong sense of commitment on the part of university staff is necessary. How much still remains to be done is evident from the analysis which reveals several types of difficulties. " Such difficulties are named as: "insufficient training of key change agents at the universities and the lack of a well-balanced staff development policy. ... The self-evaluation institutional commitee has to be given a clear role for the self-evaluation report to be of high quality." The documentation of the evaluation should lay "greater emphasis on analysis than on description." (DIPF/orig.)
