Section 8–Quality Assurance
Elite Education Institute is actively monitoring student learning
and quality of the student experience in all its programs. A
random selection of completed assessment tasks may be used
for quality assurance, such as to determine the extent to which
course and unit of study program learning goals are being
achieved. The information is required for accreditation
purposes, and aggregated findings will be used to inform
changes aimed at improving the quality of Elite Education
Institute programs. All material used for such processes will be
treated as confidential and will not be related to course grades.
