NIAD-QE collects and provides useful information on quality assurance in higher education through its website, publications and forums/seminars. Those activities aim to disseminate a quality assurance culture through the higher education sector in Japan, as well as to contribute to further development of internal quality assurance activities in universities and colleges.

Information Package

The Information Package is a comprehensive selection of basic information on quality assurance in Japanese and various nations’ higher education. It contains Glossary of Quality Assurance in Japanese Higher Education, Overviews of Quality Assurance System in Higher Education, NIAD-QE's evaluation and accreditation materials.

The package serves as promoting understanding of higher education and quality assurance in Japan and related countries. It can also help higher education institutions that intend to build and strengthen international activities with overseas partners to understand foreign systems.
