QA Week 2024 Brings Together Admin Staff and REPS, Recognizes QA Kahusayan in UPD
This year’s QA Week, organized by the UPD Quality Assurance Office, was anchored in two symbolisms: gears in synchronized motion in an efficient operating system.
On October 22, 2024, the Internal Quality Assurance unit of the Quality Assurance Office (QAO) facilitated a valuable internal process benchmarking session between the College of Engineering (COE) and the College of Human Kinetics (CHK). COE representatives, including Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Prof. Leslie Joy Diaz, Assistant QA Officer Asst. Prof. Karl Adrian Vergara, COE ARTA Focal Person Ms. Gloria Tamayo, and QA Administrative Staff Ms. Audrey Yumul, were warmly welcomed by CHK College QA Officer Assoc. Prof. Marla Frances Mallari and Cluster ARTA Focal Person for the Arts and Letters Cluster Ms. Vivien Matias at the CHK UP Varsity Training Center.
The primary objective of the meeting was to explore strategies for integrating academic QA practices into the college’s administrative QA processes and ARTA initiatives. By sharing insights and best practices, both colleges aimed to streamline operations and enhance overall quality assurance within the University.
