3. HIGH LIGHTS
India is the second largest HE system in the world.
There are 51649 HEIs in India. with 37.4 million
students.
78.66% of them are private institutions. NAAC has
done 13450 accreditations so far which is highest in
the world
The revised assessment and accreditation frame
work was launched by NAAC in July, 2017. It
represents an explicit paradigm shift making it ICT
enabled, objective, transparent, scalable faster and
robust.
4. Unique features of the Manual of Health Sciences for Colleges
• While preparing the manual of Health Sciences (Universities and
Colleges) the essence of revised accreditation frame work (RAF) was
retained.
• All the metrics go through core values and reflects philosophy of
NAAC
• NAAC has developed manuals for Health Sciences University and
Colleges separately , which has 5 steps- namely IIQA, SSR
[Qlm/QnM], Unique SSS online, Data verification and validation
[DVV] pre-qualifier[25%], PTV for Qlm & declaration of result,
AOD
• Mapped to 0,1,2,3,4, scale, benchmark is developed for scoring
• NAAC had kept in mind the complexity and diversity in Health
Sciences Education system and also field perception for A&A process.
Accordingly the Manual for Health Sciences Colleges was developed
having two Parts Part – A for 900 weightage and Part –B for 100
weightage, total 1000 weightage (Ratio QnM 65% and QlM 35%)
5. Part -A Metrics is generic in nature and applicable
to all types of Health Sciences Colleges
Part -B is discipline specific (Medical, Dental,
Nursing, Ayurveda, Yoga / Naturopathy, Unani,
Siddha, Homeopathy, Physiotherapy and Allied
Health Sciences). This Manual is applicable for all
cycles including Re-Assessment.
The pharmacy colleges do not come under Health
Sciences for A&A w.e.f. 14/01/2020.

7. Other Unique features
• SOP for DVV process is developed and displayed on NAAC
website for Health Sciences Universities and Colleges along with
Manuals.
• Option to opt out non applicable metrics to a maximum of 50
weightage – is not allowed in the Health Sciences manual because
of the nature of Professional courses / subjects of study as stipulated
by Statutory Regulatory Bodies.
• Comprehensive Profile of the Institution is developed for Health
Sciences Universities (26Questions) and Colleges (22 Questions).
• Questionnaire for SSS separately developed for Health Sciences
Universities (23 Questions) and Colleges (21 Questions).
• Tentative Peer Team Visit Schedule developed for [3 days] Health
Sciences Universities and [2 days] Colleges
• AQARs online for HEIs in Cycle-II onwards - under preparation.
8. Intuitional Information for Quality Assessment (IIQA)
• IIQA – to know legal status of HEI before A&A
• Keep draft version of SSR ready before submission of IIQA
online
• Please visit NAAC website for sample IIQA formats,
instructions to HEI, user manual and also IIQA tutorial.
• Please register by using login credentials and also creation of
HEI portal
• IIQA is common to all types of Colleges and also all cycles
and re-assessment
• For cycle – 1, IQAC and AQAR is not applicable and
applicable to Cycle -2 onwards.
• Selection of Manual depending on the type of Institutions.
9. What documents to be submitted along with IIQA online
• Registration fee of Rs. 29,500/- (Rs. 25,000/- + 18%
GST)
• Latest affiliation letter obtained from the parent
university for all the programs offered.
• SRA approval if any
• AISHE certificate
• Self Declaration and Undertaking letter
• Nomenclature problem if any
• Supporting documents in English translated version
Time for process and acceptance 15days, if not accepted
two more attempts without fee.
After acceptance of IIQA – proceed to submit SSR online
within 45 days.

16. Focus of Assessment
NAAC continues with its focus on quality culture of the
Institution in terms of
• Quality Initiatives,
• Quality Sustenance
• Quality Enhancement
NAAC’s conviction that quality concerns are Institutional,
Quality Assessment (QA) can better be done through self-
evaluation. The self-evaluation process and the subsequent
preparation of the Self Study Report (SSR) to be submitted
involves the participation of all the stakeholders –
management, faculty members, administrative staff,
students, parents, employers, community and alumni.

70. Data Validation & Verification (DVV)
• Data Templates to be correctly filled
• HEI website to be functional
• Fill the response within 15 days of clarification period
• Data not be hosted on Google or any drive
• No password
• If the data is more than 5 MB institutions can host it on their
website and share the link
• Refer Standard operating procedure (SOP) helpful in SSR
submission and DVV clarification
71. Data Validation & Verification (DVV)
• Helps NAAC ensure correctness of the data captured during
the SSR process.
• Identified external agencies to partner - validate the claims
made by an institution.
• Data sheets for various metrics - NAAC
• AISHE, Mandatory disclosure – website, UGC, MHRD,
Universities, State Higher Education Departments, other
Regulatory agencies.
• Annual reports, Audited Statements of Accounts, Research –
Scopus, Web of Science, INFLIBNET.
• No on-site visit for validation.
• More amenable to the use of technology - data mining and
analytics
74. Once the DVV process is over DVV deviation report
is generated.
Ensure authentic, correct data are provided through
out. Incorrect data or false details could lead to
disqualification or penalty
If the institution scores below 25%, the Peer Team
Visit will not be conducted.
If the institution prequalifies, Institution goes for peer
team visit.
