QA reviews will be undertaken for all 15 universities over the life of the program. These reviews will cover the following dimensions: curriculum design and development; teaching and learning; learning resources, student support, and progression; student assessment and awards; strength and quality of staff; postgraduate studies, research, and innovation; community engagement, consultancy, and outreach; distance education; QA; and governance and management. Simultaneously, internal QA mechanisms will be strengthened in the universities through Internal Quality Assurance Units (IQAUs) and in the ATIs through Internal Quality Assurance Cells (IQACs). The Standing Committee on Accreditation and Quality Assurance (SCAQA) of the MHEH will undertake the registration and QA of non-state HEIs.

The Program will support university academics to obtain PhD or equivalent doctoral qualifications and SLIATE academic staff to obtain master’s degrees and professional doctorates from reputed universities. University academics will only be eligible for The PhD and Doctoral scholarships from reputed overseas universities and higher education institutions. The scholarships would be for both full time and split-site doctoral programs. The Program will also support short-term training programs for the capacity building of academic, managerial, and technical staff of the MHEH, UGC, SLIATE, universities, ATIs, and non-state HEIs. Staff development will use a variety of methods such as programmatic training, cohort training, and on-the- job training.
