Welcome to AUD's Quality Enhancement Plan webpage.
In 2007, AUD became the first institution of higher learning outside the Americas to be awarded independent accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) in the United States. A fundamental component of AUD's re-affirmation of this prestigious accreditation is the successful creation of a Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP).
The QEP is our commitment, as an institution, to enhance the overall quality and effectiveness of the education provided by AUD. Ultimately, the goal of the QEP is to improve student learning and success.
If you have any comments, questions, or concerns about our institutional QEP, please feel free to contact us at: qep@aud.edu
We look forward to working with you to enhance the educational experience for the AUD community!
The mission of the Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) Steering Committee is to: create and apply a complete process that encompasses every stage of QEP development and the various tasks therein; ensure that the QEP development process complies with the requirements and guidelines set by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC); oversee the production of a final QEP document that is ready for submission to the SACSCOC within the timeframe set for QEP completion and submission; and create mechanisms for implementing the QEP once it is approved by the SACSCOC.
