MQA does rigorous evaluation

WE refer to the report “Only the best must be chosen” (The Star, July 23) which quoted Prof Dr Edmund Terence Gomez of Universiti Malaya’s Faculty of Economics and Administration saying that the MQA’s (Malaysian Qualifications Agency) curriculum review “should not be just paper work but to vet how courses were run and if proper teaching methods were implemented.”

We are grateful for his concern and we would like to take this opportunity to clarify that the accreditation is an expert evaluation on the entire system of development, operation and monitoring of a programme.
