Accreditation and Quality

Debates

Date: Tue November 17, 2009

Schedule: 15.00 - 16.30 (UTC+3h)

Location: Doha, Qatar

Moderated by: Prof. Ingrid Moses Emeritus

Quality and accreditation each play an important role in establishing the value and veracity of education and its opportunities. They are also critical in helping employers and the wider community make judgements and decisions. It can be argued that they are more important than ever before, given our unprecedented access to information and opportunities provided through the Internet. Yet it is also true that quality and accreditation have very possibly never faced greater challenges as a result of the pace at which our world is changing.
