About the Program Lifecycle

Programs go through a variety of quality assurance mechanisms throughout its lifecycle. Following new program development and program approval, the program launches. The program is reviewed through the Annual Program Performance Review process annual, and following 5 years after program launch, undertakes a Program Quality Review (PQR). The outcomes of the PQR identify any necessary curriculum updates that may be undertaken during the Annual Curriculum Review (ACR).
