Genesis
Welcome to Accreditation Times, your own newsletter for all things accreditations!
For our first edition, the theme is Genesis because it exemplifies one simple thing: the beginning. That’s why we start by featuring the important snippets of a valuable webinar that involved real-time feedback and live discussions with 100+ faculty members. We also look at the basics of accreditation. What are they? Why do they exist? And do they really improve the learning outcomes for students in our country?
Finally, we then look at some of the prestigious clients that have chosen to place their trust in STUDIUM’s solution and introduce you to some of our advisors. Each such edition will be packed with information that will add value to your institute’s journey, no matter where you are in the accreditation management framework.
Follow this space for latest news and updates in the accreditation management space, many relevant, contextual “value nuggets”, and a lot more!
