QAA

The latest results from the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (QAA) for USP College.

The Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (QAA)​​ is the independent body entrusted with monitoring, and advising on, standards and quality in UK higher education.​

They are dedicated to checking that the three million students working towards a UK qualification get the higher education experience they are entitled to expect.​​​

A team of QAA reviewers visited the college this year and scrutinised its academic standards, the quality of learning, and the quality of information about its learning opportunities. The reviewers found that the college meets all UK expectations in these areas.

The college was singled out for praise for the high level of individualised support that students receive as well as the work the team does to support academic and professional development.

A successful review means that the college can display the QAA Quality Mark, indicating to the UK and international students that it meets national requirements for standards and quality.

Following the process of the Higher Education Review (HER) the college has published its HER Action Plan for the future development of its existing provision, a requirement for all institutions.
