Recommendations Specific Strategies Adopted by Internal Quality Assurance Cells A Critical Analysis

Abstract

It is widely recognised that the quality higher education promotes comprehensive and multi level development by enhancing human and technical capabilities of the society. Development of higher education and development of a country are closely related. Therefore quality assurance in higher education has been one of the major challenges in the development agenda not only in India but also all over the world. In this context IQACs of NAAC accredited colleges are functioning for sustenance and enhancement of internal quality of the higher education institutions. In Odisha only 192 colleges out of 520 UGC affiliated colleges have valid NAAC accreditation status. Therefore it is significant to study the strategies adopted by IQACs in relation to follow up activities during post NAAC accreditation period. The exploratory survey method was adopted in the present study. The sample of the study comprised of 12 NAAC accredited colleges in which 6 were autonomous colleges and 6 were non autonomous colleges, 6 were rural colleges and 6 were urban colleges, 6 were government colleges and 6 were non government aided colleges. Purposive sampling techniques was adopted to select the sample colleges. The data related to NAAC recommendations and strategies adopted by IQACs during post NAAC accreditation period were collected through information cum observation schedule and taking interviews of the IQAC members and coordinators with the help of Interview Guide. Content analysis techniques was adopted for analysis and interpretation of collected data. The study reveals that IQACs are taking steps to undertake strategies to follow up the recommendation given by NAAC peer team during their visit to the institution. Autonomous colleges are in better position in comparison to non autonomous colleges. Future challenges of quality higher education needs to be linked with the proper functioning of IQACs which can sustain and enhance institutional quality.
