What is PAA?
Operators with a track record in the area of a validated programme and have completed at least two cycles of programme revalidation can be considered for Programme Area Accreditation (PAA) application in the same area of study. Successful Programme Area Accreditation confers PAA status to operators. With PAA status, operators can develop and offer new learning programmes within a defined scope of programme area and at specified QF level(s), and enter the qualifications of those learning programmes to the QR without being subject to external quality assurance by the HKCAAVQ within the PAA validity period.
Individual programmes under Programme Area Accreditation (PAA) are not listed here. Please refer to the Qualification Register (QR) for these programmes. Since entry to QR is voluntary, accredited programmes under PAA may not be included in the QR.
