In addition, to address the public concern regarding issues of
recognition of qualifications, we spoke at a number of career
guidance events to introduce our qualifications assessment service to
teachers. They were well received by the teaching professionals.
Building on International Connections
For the purpose of continuous improvement, HKCAAVQ actively
engages with relevant quality assurance agencies worldwide through
regular contact and collaboration. These links directly benefit our
wish to reference best practices through benchmarking against
international standards, while they also support our vision to be a
nationally and globally recognised quality assurance body.
In 2015/16, HKCAAVQ signed two new Memoranda of Agreement/
Understanding with the Knowledge and Human Development
Authority (KHDA) in Dubai and the Macao Polytechnic Institute
(MPI) to facilitate mutual cooperation in quality assurance such
as exchange of information, sharing of knowledge/publications
and review of learning programmes. We have also renewed our
Memorandum of Understanding with the Japan National Institution
for Academic Degrees and University Evaluation (NIAD-UE) for a
period of three years to continue our strategic alliance in improving
the quality of higher education in both economies. HKCAAVQ and
the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (QAA) of UK are
exploring ways to conduct joint reviews of non-local programmes
offered by the UK operators in Hong Kong. This initiative is aimed to
minimise the workload of both the agencies and the operators while
ensuring that quality is still assured adequately within the contexts of
the quality assurance approaches within the two economies.
