National Institution for Academic Degrees and Quality Enhancement of Higher Education (NIAD-QE) has developed the "information package" as a means for providing comprehensive information on higher education and quality assurance systems in Japan and other countries.

Glossary of Quality Assurance in Japanese Higher Education (online version) is now available. The content is continuously updated as needed based on amendments to the related laws. You can browse the glossary using search words.

Online version is created based on Glossary of Quality Assurance in Japanese Higher Education (5th edition) published by NIAD-QE in August 2021. Please note that this online version may differ from the 5th edition, since the content is continuously updated as needed.
