UP Tacloban’s quality assurance (QA) officers, faculty members, student support staff, administrative unit heads, and students attended an Orientation to Quality Assurance in Higher Education seminar with Dr. Alyssa M. Peleo-Alampay, UP Assistant Vice President for Academic Affairs (Quality Assurance), on 20 March 2024 at the Leyte Samar Heritage Center.

Dr. Peleo-Alampay discussed QA principles and QA systems and frameworks, including the ASEAN University Network QA system, the ASEAN Qualifications Reference Framework, and the Philippine Qualifications Framework. She also gave an overview of the UP QA system, which is composed of an internal academic assessment and development system (iAADS) and an external QA process.

After the college-wide orientation session, the College QA Committee chaired by Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Dr. Irene L. Tan met with Dr. Peleo-Alampay to discuss plans for the external review of UP Tacloban’s undergraduate degree programs in the latter half of 2024.

The QA orientation is part of UPDate, UP Tacloban’s flagship program to advance academic excellence through curriculum development, teaching and learning skills enhancement, modernization of learning facilities, and QA of degree programs.
