We regularly engage in a number of international projects that will ultimately benefit the UK sector and the broader international higher education community.
Higher education in Egypt is currently undergoing major development - one of the objectives of the of the Egypt Vision 2030 is a focus on enhancing quality of higher education institutions. The challenges for the quality assurance processes in higher education, together with those raised by COVID-19 have prompted the National Agency for Quality Assurance and Accreditation in Education (NAQAAE) to reflect on the accreditation process - this report considers current processes, how effective they are and where recommendations for improvement might be made.

QAA has compiled these reports in collaboration with the Accreditation and Quality Assurance Commission for Higher Education Institutions (AQACHEI) in Jordan and the Cotswold Research Consultancy. They form part of the British Council Global Higher Education programme and the strand of enhancing student outcomes. Mapping the Jordanian Learner Journey provides a unique insight and comparison of the Jordanian and UK learners’ experience from secondary stage through university, to graduation and employment, focusing on the steps taken to narrow any gaps in skills between university graduates and employers’ requirements. This international partnership provides a valuable opportunity to share international and national best practice, to develop further activities and to continue progress in addressing employability of graduates internationally.

Working alongside our partners in ENQA, the German Academic Exchange Service, and the British Council, we are contributing to the SHARE project. The project aims to strengthen regional cooperation and enhance the quality, regional competitiveness and internationalisation of Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) higher education institutions and students.
This is a capacity-building project that includes training for ASEAN quality agencies, driven by a desire to enhance cooperation between the EU and the ASEAN Economic Community, and create lasting benefit from the harmonisation of higher education across the ASEAN region.
By taking part in this project, we support UK higher education providers seeking to build relationships, partnerships and operations in the ASEAN region. To learn more about the SHARE project, please visit the ENQA website.
