QAA Managing Director, Nadia Tahir briefed the participants about the current scenario and future endeavours of HEC regarding quality assurance.
The
QAA has divided all the QECs into 10 groups and two-day activities will be held for each group.
In a press release following a meeting in London on Tuesday night between Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research Slim Khalbous and Director, Quality Development at
QAA Lan Kimber, the ministry said that it had been agreed that the
QAA will support the accreditation program of Tunisian universities at the international level.
However, the university had refused to accept the
QAA report of HEC claiming the report was released late and university in the meantime had improved the quality standards of its program.
A team of experts, constituted by the
QAA, visited the university on February 9, 2018, to review its PhD and MPhil/MS/equivalent programmes.
The
QAA highlighted a number of strengths including the university's deeply-embedded, extensive, and culturally-valued partnership with students and the fact that the university's approach to enhancing the student learning experience is "effective, student-led and studentfocused."
The workshop follows an assessment of 74 private schools by the
QAA and the Education Ministry.
It means the university can display the
QAA Quality Mark, indicating to students it meets national requirements for standards and quality.
A team of
QAA reviewers visited the Grwp and judged that its academic standards, the quality of its student learning opportunities, and the quality of information about its learning opportunities all meet UK expectations.
Meanwhile Hezbollah, currently fighting in the north of Syria in support of Bashar al Assad's regime, have been continuing the fight against Daesh -- targeting militants and killing their commander in charge of the
Qaa area where the bombings took place.
Lebanese security chiefs have warned of a heightened terrorist threat in the wake of the
Qaa attacks, with Prime Minister Tammam Salam raising concerns about "a new wave of terrorist operations."
