The Academic Quality Enhancement Working Group (AQEWG) provides feedback, direction, advice, and assistance on the updating of existing academic policies, processes, and actions related to ensuring ongoing quality academic programming.
The group is engaged in the development of the materials, engagement in discussions and planning of next steps related to the Ministry of Post-Secondary Education and Future Skills’ Quality Assurance Process Audit (QAPA) and the related outcomes of that audit to advance NIC’s commitment to quality student learning.
The group began in January 2023 and will continue into 2024.
