Enhancing Quality in International Partnerships – or Collaborative Adventures...

Role of International Office Initial advice Environment Risk Overview of University Activity Alignment to International Plan Financial advice?

Role of Academic Services Proposal guidance / advice Documentation advice International partner / programme approval Monitoring conditions of approval Re-approvals Enhancement /student experience

How did it all start? Early collaborations - Greece - Russia - Taiwan Lessons learnt!

Global Partnerships

Programmes Delivered Overseas

Where are we? Franchises Validations Dual Awards Articulations Letters of Recognition Exchange Agreements ……….

Why? Corporate Strategy Diversification Knowledge creation / pedagogy Income Post-Browne pressures Reputation Eg NBS Accreditations

How things are changing Drive towards strategic partnerships International Strategy Greater central oversight Why this partner, why these programmes, what synergies Changing processes Co-ordination of operations

Quality – how do we assess it? Academic – APM Procedural - deadlines, conformance Financial – Budgets Reputational Strategic

Why Different Types of CV Activity Franchise vs Validation Ownership, control, overseas legislation (Malaysia University College) Articulation vs Letter of Recognition MoU vs MoC

Risk Assessment Due Diligence LTPAS Risk Approach Risk – impact – controls – likelihood resultant approval and operational procedures

Change of Approach Away from type of CV = procedures to adopt To CV outcomes required = risk associated = procedures adopted A single framework

Negotiation Points Programmes – range, customisation Delivery pattern Student numbers max / min Entry criteria KPIs

The Process Development idea – proposal (CVP) SLT & School Exec International Committee LTPAS & Finance Director ULT Approvals – Partner and Programme ULT

Franchises - Our Obligations Materials Blackboard Electronic Resources Operations Manual Assessment / moderation Staff development Marks, progression and awards

Student Experience in TNE QAA expectations “ collaborative …provision should widen learning opportunities without prejudice either to the academic standard of the award or the quality of what is offered to students.” Cultural/Political/Religious Norms What are our responsibilities?

Discussion Questions To what extent should experience overseas match the UK? What issues have you experienced? How can Academic Registry/International Office support Schools with their Partnerships?
