By Sonia K

Bandar Seri Begawan - Sixty staff member of the Universiti Brunei Darussalam participated in a workshop on quality assurance recently at the Senate Room, Chancellor Hall of the university.

The event, jointly organised by the International Office of UBD and Asean-EU Network Programme (AUNP), was conducted by an expert from Europe Ton Vroeijenstijn and officiated by Hj Mohd Yusop bin Hj Awg Damit, acting vice chancellor and UBD chief quality officer.

Quality assurance (QA) is a collective process by which the university as an academic institution ensures that the quality of the educational process is on par with the standards it has set.

Through its quality assurance arrangements, the university is able to satisfy itself, its students and interested external persons or bodies that its courses meet the appropriate academic and professional standards; the objectives of its courses are appropriate; the methods chosen and the resources available for delivering those objectives are appropriate and adequate.

The issues discussed in the workshop included major principles of quality and QA, best practices and trends of QA and accreditation in Europe and Asean and strategies for accreditation by self assessment at both programme and institutional levels. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
