Quality review
One of QQI’s most important responsibilities is ensuring that an education provider’s quality assurance procedures are effective.
The main way we do this is through the external review process. The aim of this process is to provide an external review of the effectiveness and implementation of a provider’s own internal quality assurance procedures.
