Visitors can learn about the evaluation processes and accreditation standards that affect various types of universities. The organization provides information on how Japanese universities meet international requirements.
The embedded Institute for Quality Assurance in Higher Education develops new evaluation methods that are later adopted by other countries in the region. This research work positions the organization as a pioneer for assessment techniques across Asia.
