INQAAHE

Networks

Over the past few years, many groups of QA agencies have formed networks, on the basis of geographical regions or other agency characteristics (such as agencies in small states or agencies for professional accreditation). Being supportive of this development, INQAAHE works not only with and for its member agencies but also with and for the networks of agencies. INQAAHE’s statement on collaboration with agencies is called Working Together and can be downloaded below.

The establishment of the ASEAN Quality Assurance Network (AQAN)

The Inaugural ASEAN Quality Assurance Agencies Roundtable Meeting was held in Kuala Lumpur from 6 to 8 July 2008. It was co-organized by the Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA) and the Bangkok-based SEAMEO-RIHED. It was attended by heads of Quality Assurance Agencies and, in cases where there is no formal quality assurance agency, by representatives of ministries responsible for quality assuring higher education from all ASEAN countries. As an Inaugural Roundtable, the country representatives presented a general overview of quality assurance in higher education in their respective countries. These presentations were compiled and published as proceedings, and distributed to all members.
