The Quality Assurance Framework is a tool to help ACE providers understand how they are performing, identify where improvement can be made and gives suggestions to address these areas. The framework uses a self-assessment approach and can be adapted to fit the size of the organisation.
“A commitment to quality, not compliance”
About the ACE Quality Assurance (QA) Framework
The Adult and Community Education (ACE) Quality Assurance (QA) framework is for providers of community learning. The framework describes a capable learning organisation, and is underpinned by the values of rangatiratanga, manaakitanga whanaungatanga, and the guiding principle of ako.
The QA Framework can be used by ACE providers to
- Review the organisation’s operational processes
- Demonstrate the quality of what you do
- Think about ways to improve
