Full International Membership is exclusively for those institutions that have achieved International Quality Review (IQR) accreditation from QAA.
QAA Membership, on top of QAA institutional accreditation, has added a lot to the GMU community as it plays an important role in spreading the culture of quality across the whole university and all of its programmes. We are excited about the endless networking opportunities and sharing of best practice in quality improvement that QAA Membership will bring.
