Synopsis
In recent years there has been a developing trend in HE institutions towards greater accountability for the quality of the education they provide. Accordingly, external and internal scrutiny of teaching and of the overall quality of the 'services' provided by institutions is now a significant part of academic management. This book describes a range of experiences of internal audit from the UK, US, Australia, NZ, SA and Germany, and presents approaches to best practice that will enable readers to assess and develop their own audit procedures, including focussing on how proven principles from business and finance can be incorporated into an educational environment.
