The Turkish Higher Education Quality Council (THEQC) hosted the delegation of the Malaysian Qualifications Agency (MQA) in Ankara. Held with the participation of Prof. \u00dcmit Kocab\u0131\u00e7ak, THEQC President, the meeting addressed the strengthening of existing cooperation between the two agencies through concrete steps, the development of quality assurance systems within the framework of international cooperation, and the sharing of best practices.<\/p>

The visit, which took place on 3 November 2026, was led by Halinordina Mat Saat, MQA Deputy Chief Executive Officer, accompanied by Rohasni Mohd Sidek, Director of Standards Division, and Mohd Ishak Mohd Hussaini, Director of Accreditation Division. During the meeting, the commitment to implementing the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed in April 2026 following the contacts between the agencies in 2022 and 2025 was emphasised.<\/p>

A Key Agenda Item: Micro-credentials<\/p>

One of the prominent topics during the visit was micro-credentials. It was reported that discussions on micro-credentials, which were also addressed at the T\u00fcrkiye-Malaysia Higher Education Joint Committee meeting held in Malaysia in April 2026, are ongoing. It was noted that micro-credentials are gaining increasing importance in terms of lifelong learning, flexible education models, and meeting the evolving needs of the labour market.<\/p>

Joint Projects and Training Programs Are Targeted<\/p>

At the meeting aimed at transforming the signed MoU into practical collaborations and joint activities, opportunities for organising joint training programs, exchanging expertise, and sharing best practices between the agencies were evaluated.<\/p>

The meeting concluded with wishes for the further consolidation of friendship and cooperation between the two agencies.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
