The International Association for Quality Assurance in Pre-Tertiary and Higher Education (QAHE) is proud to announce the signing of a strategic Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the International Federation of Private Universities (IFPU). This agreement represents a fundamental milestone in advancing cross-border educational collaboration and strengthening quality assurance in the global academic landscape through international educational collaboration.
This five-year MOU establishes a comprehensive framework for deep cooperation and international educational collaboration between both organizations. Its primary objective is to foster mutual recognition of academic qualifications and accreditation processes, as well as to drive joint promotional activities that benefit their respective networks of institutions. Furthermore, the alliance actively seeks continuous improvement in quality assurance standards, ensuring affiliated institutions maintain the highest levels of educational excellence.
The collaboration between QAHE and IFPU underscores the growing importance of international educational collaboration for maintaining the integrity and credibility of higher and pre-tertiary education. While the agreement affirms mutual recognition of each entity’s accreditation practices and quality assurance frameworks, it’s crucial to note that institutions seeking full accreditation or membership must continue to adhere to the standard procedures and criteria established by each organization. This guarantees rigor and consistency in educational quality assessment.
Both organizations expect this strategic alliance to propel new opportunities for professional development, knowledge exchange, and implementation of best practices throughout the global education sector. Through international educational collaboration, the synergy between QAHE and IFPU is designed to create a more robust and reliable environment for students, educators, and institutions worldwide, promoting academic mobility and international recognition of educational quality.
