The Program Accreditation Standards Compliance Committee convened to review and finalise its work after completing tasks by the Self-Assessment Committee and the Improvement Committee, which had already submitted their report. At this stage, the Compliance Committee was responsible for preparing the Accreditation Compliance Report (ACR), which focuses on the evidence and procedures demonstrating that the program has successfully implemented its improvement plan and is now aligned with the required standards.
The significance of completing this report lies in:
-
Quality Assurance: Ensuring that the program maintains high levels of educational quality and meets professional standards in its field.
-
Recognition and Credibility: Granting the program official recognition from an impartial body enhances local and international credibility.
-
Graduate Opportunities: Helping graduates of accredited programs secure better job opportunities and often qualify for professional licenses or admission to prestigious postgraduate programs.
-
Continuous Improvement: Encouraging institutions to conduct regular self-assessment and continuously develop their programs to keep pace with changes in the labour market and academic disciplines.
