Emirates Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment

Inaugurated on 14^th, November, 2016, the Institute was established due to growing efforts towards gaining accreditation and assessment both nationally and internationally. The absence of a collective benchmark and sharing of resources amongst higher education institutions in the region created the need for a body to oversee this.

Rethinking the relationship between higher education institutions is essential for the promotion of better learning. Until now, accreditation and assessment of higher education has been compliance based. One of the contributions of the Institute is to turn existing compliance-based models into innovative vehicles for the development of better learning.
