Overview

Policies are essential to Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) as they clarify the expectations from various members of the community, provide a framework for institutional integrity, promote consistency, efficiency and effectiveness, help mitigate and manage institutional risks and supports compliance and adherence with accreditation requirements.

However, despite the ‘well- known’ benefits of having well -designed, consistent and ‘fit for purpose’ institutional policies and procedures; developing these can be a daunting activity for Universities and Colleges; in particular given the very complex nature of Higher Education and the various internal and external influencing factors.

The aim of this webinar is to provide those with policy drafting, management and/or review responsibilities with an opportunity to explore how good policies can be formulated, implemented, regularly assessed and reviewed from a system perspective.

The webinar will expose participants to a six-phase policy development life cycle process which can be easily adapted to different institutions. The relation between institutional mission, values, strategic goals, internal and external quality assurance and policies will be addressed throughout the session.

Various strategies and approaches to improve compliance will be discussed as well as the link between policy compliance and risk management.
