Role of the Faculty Quality Assurance Cells (FQACs) and the Internal Quality Assurance Cells (IQACs)

The FQAC/IQAC of a Faculty of Study is responsible for developing the guidelines relating to the quality assurance activities of the faculty and overseeing the implementation of such activities.

These activities will revolve around the following aspects.

1. Curriculum development, management and review
2. Teaching, learning and assessment methods
3. Learning environment (learning opportunities, resources and locations)
4. Academic staff (staff training, upgrading knowledge and skills, student and peer observation, reflection etc.)
5. Administrative staff (general administration and documentation)
6. Student support services (including academic guidance and counseling)
7. Students (including student progress and their achievements)

To guide and facilitate the activities of FQAC/IQAC, an operating guideline has been prepared by CQA. The composition of the FQAC/IQAC should be determined by each faculty based on the structure and the nature of activities out of the faculty. However, it is highly recommended to adhere to a common format that will facilitate easy and effective communications among different departments/ units/boards of study of the faculty and between Faculty FQAC/IQAC and the CQA-EUSL.
