Higher education registration and course accreditation

TEQSA registration, the Higher Education Standards Framework, and course accreditation for higher education providers.

IPractice areas

Where we work.

i

TEQSA registration

Initial registration and renewal against the Higher Education Standards Framework.

ii

Course accreditation

Accrediting higher education courses, including the academic governance that must sit behind them.

iii

Academic governance

Bodies with genuine authority, and minutes that show they exercised it.

IIWhat goes wrong

The failures worth knowing about in advance.

We list these publicly because most of the value of an adviser is knowing which mistakes are common, and that knowledge is not worth hiding.

Governance on the organisation chart only

An academic board that exists in the constitution and does not meaningfully deliberate is a core registration problem.

VET habits in an HE application

The evidence expectations differ. Compliance documentation written in VET style does not answer HE standards.

IIIHow we work

We tell you what we find.

Including when the answer is that you do not need the engagement you asked for. An adviser who never says that is not giving you information, they are giving you an invoice.

Scope of advice

We advise on regulation and practice. Where a matter needs a legal opinion or a financial audit, we will say so and stop rather than improvise.

Start a conversation.

Describe the situation. If it is outside what we do, we will tell you that and point you at who does.
