夜色直播apphas renewed its Memorandum of Understanding with the National Institution for Academic Degrees and Quality Enhancement of Higher Education (NIAD-QE), the agency responsible for evaluation in Japanese higher education and serving as Japan’s national information centre.
Through the Memorandum of Understanding, 夜色直播appand NIAD-QE will continue to share information about each other’s activities and priorities, as well as relevant developments, opportunities and challenges in each other’s higher education systems. The partnership will provide continued high-level intelligence for 夜色直播appMembers about regulatory developments and opportunities for collaboration in Japanese higher education.
The partnership focuses on shared areas of interest such as academic integrity. It builds upon QAA’s established partnership with NIAD-QE, first cemented in 2007 through the signing of our initial agreement, which led to collaboration across a range of activities including in the development of our and accompanying webinar for 夜色直播appInternational Insights Members last year. The agreement is signed by 夜色直播appin its capacity supporting the enhancement of higher education internationally, including activity to support 夜色直播appMembers and collaboration with international partners.

We look forward to continuing to work together over the next few years, yielding improved opportunities for the higher education sectors in both our jurisdictions.’
Dr Hideki Fukuda, President of NIAD-QE commented: ‘With this opportunity to renew our Memorandum of Understanding for the 4th period, we at NIAD-QE hope to accelerate information sharing and the staff development, based on the strong partnership with QAA. We must respond to the rapidly changing needs of higher education and the quality assurance sector. Collaboration is the key to overcoming the pandemic. We would like to continue to share expertise, knowledge and good practices with QAA, collaborating to further strengthen higher education both in UK and Japan.’
