Driving Quality Enhancement in Higher Education Through Experience Sharing |
---|
|
Abstract Identifying and sharing of good practices has been an effective way to enhance quality. As the only statutory quality assurance agency in Hong Kong, the Hong Kong Council for Academic Accreditation (HKCAAVQ) envisioned to establish an open platform that allows exchange and sharing of good practices among education and training providers. To this end, it succeeded in bidding government funding via the Quality Enhancement Support Scheme in 2014. The project is comprised of three parts: (a) Forums for higher education operators to share on local good practices as well as international perspectives on quality assurance trends and practices; (b) Workshops to develop HKCAAVQ professional staff’s competency with respect to international developments and practices in quality assurance; and (c) An electronic knowledgebase consolidating good practices identified from forums and workshops for dissemination across the sector. |
