Quality Assurance

Welcome to the webpage of the Directorate of Quality Assurance (DQA) at UHD. One of the main missions of the Quality Assurance body at UHD is to assure the quality of teaching/learning. The vision of DQA is to ensure that the quality of education meets the requirements of sustainable development. The DQA uses G-Suite for Education to run the process of assuring the quality of teaching/learning and promoting e-teaching among the teaching staff of UHD.

Bologna Process

The Bologna Process is a series of ministerial meetings and agreements between European countries to ensure comparability in the standards and quality of higher-education qualifications.[1] The process has created the European Higher Education Area under the Lisbon Recognition Convention. It is named after the University of Bologna, where the Bologna declaration was signed by education ministers from 29 European countries in 1999.

Student Feedback

 University of Human Development highly values and appreciates student feedback. Student

input is the nexus between quality learning and the development and management of teaching

activities, decision making and strategic policies that help maintain educational standards. UHD

teams of experts meticulously observe and process student feedback to design, create and employ

measures that help enhance learning quality. This is an integral part of UHD’s quality assurance

system. UHD’s assessment teams of quality assurance deem student feedback on teaching

quality, learning environment, and administrative efficiency to be of eminent importance that

contribute to and facilitate better learning quality. UHD commits itself to the maintenance of

optimized policies and procedures that are continually assessed and engendered through

collaborative partnership to ensure the implementation of supporting practices that focus on

students’ concerns and recommendations.

Teacher Portfolio

At large, UHD views teachers’ portfolios holistically. The more traditional outlooks may define

portfolios conventionally as collections of certificates, diplomas, CGPAs, standard test scores,

educational and academic documents, formal evaluations expressed in referee letters, records of

publications, conference attendance, etc. UHD essentially considers teachers’ portfolios to

transcend these conventional attempts to define a “portfolio” and rather takes into account an

individual’s personal and interpersonal skills and their teaching and educational philosophy. This

view informs UHD and the instructors likewise about the levels of success in both of the

teaching and learning areas. It provides an opportunity for the instructors to assess their own

success and evaluate their teaching abilities in light of their professional development. UHD

continually tries to enhance its instructors’ teaching and personal experience. This helps both

parties highlight the areas where instructor’s might need to further develop their skills to

facilitate learning outcomes.


Continues Academic Development

UHD has adopted the belief that learning does not stop where one is given a certificate that marks the completion of the requirements for the academic programs. Academic staff at UHD join a variety of different academic activities to promote their provision of the learning material to their students and further refine their understanding of their own learning. The activities are largely marked by seminars, book clubs, and readings sessions that are mostly held weekly. The seminars and readings are announced on different platforms so that interested academics, researchers and students can join and share, discuss, and evaluate ideas and interpretations together. It provides a unique opportunity for the instructors and the students to be involved in collaborative and active learning together. This helps reduce the affective filters and assists in better student engagement with research ideas in their fields of study. Discussions and analyses encourages academic excellence and promotes research ideas.
