improve in order to improve this criterion.

side to industry and field of study, and extension, which is the institution's outreach to society,

the important elements to consider when upgrading this criterion:

education and field of study is extremely important. Assisting and guiding pupils in their studies
improves the overall educational quality. While working on this criterion, it is also crucial to
consider how the institution facilitates students' transition to higher levels of study and/or
employment. To meet these requirements, the institution must concentrate on the following:
Criteria -5 : Student Support and Progression

12. The institution's backbone is governance and management. A well-structured governing
body and management aid in the detection and correction of gaps in practices, as well as
the timely implementation of appropriate countermeasures. It determines the institution's

empowerment, financial resource management, and strategy formulation. The following are
