Rossol:Muster-Handbuch AZAV

The Accreditation and Approval Regulation for Employment Promotion (AZAV) establishes the requirements for the approval of providers of employment promotion measures. As of January 1, 2013, all providers of measures must possess this approval. This also includes the initial assessment process and the vocational training area of workshops for people with disabilities.

The regulation requires service providers to have a quality assurance system in place. According to the regulation, this system is considered to be in place when the quality is ensured and continuously improved through targeted and systematic procedures and measures.

The sample manual AZAV provides an example of documentation for provider approval with the necessary quality assurance system for the initial assessment process and the vocational training area in workshops for people with disabilities.

The manual is process-oriented and follows the person-centered WfbM Quality Plus systematics. The appendix includes an AZAV checklist for reviewing the internal system.

The present 2nd edition of the AZAV manual has been completely revised and expanded. The appendix contains an AZAV checklist for audit-compliant verification of the system, the relevant legal texts, and the recommendations of the Recognition Advisory Board.
