On the path of Academic Accreditation
- It is realized that starting on the path of academic accreditation does not imply that the target is in sight: hard work, over a period of time, is required.
- Internal & external program self-assessments and reviews may be performed as good-practice measures for IE/QA purposes as well as for internal improvement. Such efforts will also be valuable when the time comes for accreditation to be considered.
- Program evaluation and IE efforts need to be supported at all levels by creating a ‘culture of assessment’ throughout the institution.
