Summary/Abstract: The present paper’ aim is to present several aspects connected to the quality of the assessing in the university system of learning. First of all, we spoke about the assessing in general in the educative act. Then, we restricted the sphere to the formative assessing and its specifications. Within the second part of the paper, we exposed and described our contributions to the field. First of all, we presented the flux scheme in the process of the formative assessing, with its specific actions: the defining requirements of the formative assessing, the modalities and criteria for the formative assessing, the elaboration the necessary materials for assessing, the validation of the elaborated materials, starting participants’ selection, the participants selection and validation, the organizing and taking the formative evaluation, the archiving the documents, the analysing the formative assessing process and improving the process. The identification data sheet of the formative assessing process contains the process code, the process name, the process scope and the responsible person. The entrance in the process is another aspect we depicted. Here are its specific issues: the entrance code, the entrances in the process and the targets. The fourth aspect presented speaks about the intern and extern risks. The process outputs contain the output code, the process outputs and the performing indices. The last aspect presented is the scheme of its interfacing with other processes, comprising the upstream and the downstream involved processes. In the end we drew the conclusions and presented a plan of improvement the quality of the formative assessing process. The plan contains a few categories, namely: the problem description, in brief, the cause analysis, the corrective actions or the preventive actions proposed, the deadline and the responsible person, the implied resources, the measuring or the monitoring required method.
