In 2008 UPNA, hand in hand with its II Strategic Plan (2005-2008), as Royal Decree 1393/2007 set out, implemented the design of an Internal Quality Assurance System (IQAS) as part of the new syllabus to cover actions in the matter of quality focused on degree’s continuous improvement.

Years after that milestone which entailed the positive verification and certification of all its Bachelor's and Master's degrees, including SIC (International Quality Seal) seals in all its Engineering degrees, UPNA is contemplating as one of its main goals to implement its V Strategic Plan (2020-23) to tackle institutional assessment by Centre within the AUDIT Programme, as Royal Decree 420/2005 describes.
