About this event

QAA's International Quality Accreditation (IQA) gives your institution a globally recognised quality mark, proving you meet rigorous international standards. It boosts your credibility and positioning, builds trust with students and partners worldwide, and drives growth through enhanced recognition and continuous improvement. This webinar will take a closer look at how international accreditation can be used as a mechanism to improve graduate employability and broaden global mobility for students.

Join us for an engaging session exploring how international quality accreditation can play a pivotal role in enabling graduates to succeed both locally and internationally. This event will examine the key challenges institutions face in an increasingly competitive international environment, look at why cross-border recognition and alignment is now vitally important for strengthening graduate employability, and share expert insights into why international accreditation is a strategic priority. 

Designed for senior leaders and quality professionals, the discussion will offer valuable perspectives on using external accreditation as a bridge between education systems, employers and global opportunities.

This event is designed for higher education institutions who are looking to: 

  • demonstrate effective quality assurance measured against international benchmarks 
  • strengthen your global positioning 
  • drive improvement and excellence 
  • develop international partnerships.

"Obtaining QAA accreditation has acted as a multiplier for Doha Institute’s visibility, credibility, and influence; enhancing stakeholder confidence, supporting student mobility, and reinforcing the Institute’s leadership in quality assurance both nationally and regionally. It has given the Institute a platform not just to prove its quality but to lead by example, advocate for excellence, and expand its impact within the Arab region and beyond."
