Quality Units
The Institutional Accreditation Program (IAP) is an external evaluation method that enables the evaluation of quality assurance, learning and teaching, research and development, service to society, and governance system processes of higher education institutions in accordance with the plan-do-check-act cycle.
The IAP is conducted by the evaluation teams assigned by THEQC in compliance with the Institutional External Evaluation and Accreditation Criteria and the Institutional External Evaluation and Accreditation Guide.
Annually, THEQC determines the higher education institutions to be included in the IAP and forms the evaluation teams in view of the structures of the institutions. During the program, the teams pay two visits (pre-visit and site visit) to the institutions.
Each team submits an Institutional Accreditation Report (IAR) following their visits, and THEQC issues a final decision regarding accreditation based on the IARs.
