Work And Study Abroad

Important Information

The QAA has published the Code of practice for the assurance of academic quality and standards in higher education. Section 9: Placement learning

The Precepts and Guidance section lists 8 precepts followed by some guidance notes. The Introduction offers a good summary.

NB: "It is expected that after July 2002 institutions will be able to demonstrate that the expectations of the code's precepts are being adhered to." (From: Introductory letter)

In connection with the above, we recommend you pay particular attention to the following pages within this website:
