External Quality Assurance Audits
The Malta Further and Higher Education Authority (MFHEA), previously known as NCFHE, carried out the first External Quality Assurance Audits among the main public further and higher education institutions in Malta– the University of Malta, MCAST and ITS. This was done in line with the Commission’s legal role for ensuring quality assurance in further and higher education in Malta.
