The workshop will focus on important issues for an IO such as a) Services orientation for International Students b) Designing an International Strategy c) Structuring an IO d) Building effective alliances. The objective of this workshop is to allow participants to view the services for international students and different styles for developing the international agenda of an institution.
With the context of globalisation, the need for Quality Assurance and Accreditation for the education sector takes a greater precedence. Each educational establishment develops and implements unique methodologies and processes to ensure education quality. Though the institutions themselves have mechanisms to monitor quality, it becomes important for the establishments to get accreditation from a neutral external agency to gain credibility as well as reputation.
