Sharing of Practices
In addition to assuring the quality of operators and their learning
programmes, the accreditation processes that we organise also aim
at supporting the continuous enhancement of operators and their
internal quality assurance processes. We assist operators through
our extensive training programme and events for sharing of practices
among institutions and academic and industry experts. We have
ensured that our training programme reflects the changes to our
processes and we have also offered training sessions in learning
programme re-accreditation and determination of Qualifications
Framework (QF) credit. We also see an increasing interest from
operators and stakeholders more broadly to participate in a dialogue
about quality assurance, which is a sign of maturity in the sector. I
appreciate the strong support from stakeholders for our anniversary
seminars and quality assurance forums that have brought local
operators together to learn from and share good quality assurance
practices in relation to a wide range of topics. These events have
been greatly helped by funding from the Government’s Quality
Enhancement Support Scheme and I hope that with the support of
our stakeholders we will be able to maintain this level of exchange in
the years to come.
International Recognition
Concerted efforts by the Secretariat over an extended period of time
came to fruition in the course of the year with the positive report
from the external review panel established to conduct a review of
HKCAAVQ’s higher education operations against the International
Network for Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education’s
(INQAAHE) Guidelines of Good Practice (GGP). The INQAAHE board
confirmed that we are complying with these good practices for quality
assurance agencies. With the review outcome we have achieved an
important milestone not only for ourselves but for the stakeholders
that make use of our services.
分享經驗方面
評審局的評審工作除了要確保營辦者及
其開辦的課程達到基本標準外，我們亦
希望評審過程可以協助營辦者持續改善
及提升其內部質素保證能力。我們為營
辦者提供各式各樣的培訓活動，邀請院
校和各學術及行業領域的專家分享經
驗。為使培訓活動能適時反映評審工作
程序上的轉變，我們亦提供課程覆審及
釐定資歷學分的培訓工作坊，使培訓活
動能適時反映評審工作程序上的轉變。
我們樂見越來越多營辦者和持份者積極
參與各方面的討論，促進本地質素保
證趨向成熟的發展。為慶祝本局成立
二十五週年，去年我們舉辦了一系列研
討會和質素保證論壇，邀請本地營辦者
聚首一堂，就多個與質素保證有關的課
題彼此分享和學習，在此我要感謝各持
份者的鼎力支持，以及政府「質素提升
支援計劃」的支助。有賴各位的支持，
我期望未來我們可以持續舉辦類似的交
流活動。
國際認可工作
秘書處上下經過一段長時間的努力，我
們獲高等教育質素保證國際網絡委員會
接受外部評審小組的報告，確認評審局
的高等教育學術評審工作符合其《優良
評鑑準則》。是次評審結果，對於評審
局以至使用本局服務的持份者來說，均
標誌著一個重要里程碑。
