New Gap Analysis Tool and Approval Application Form published

QQI Awards Provider Approval Unit has published a new Gap Analysis Tool and Approval Application Form for providers seeking approval to extend their scope of provision to include blended and / or fully online programmes. 

Higher education and further education providers are required to ‘have regard’ to QQI Quality Assurance Guidelines for Blended and Fully Online Programmes when writing their own procedures for quality assuring programmes of education and training which are to involve the use of online modes of delivery and / or assessment. Providers are encouraged to engage in this gap analysis exercise to ensure the organisation is equipped for and can effectively develop and deliver online programmes, of whatever blend and online composition.
