From November 4 to 13, 2025, «Astana Medical University» held a seminar on the topic «Internal quality assurance systems (IQAS)».

Eighty-seven university units took part in the training, including departments, research institutes, and administrative structures. The seminar was conducted in an in-person format. The program included presentations, practical case studies, and interactive discussions, which allowed participants to gain a deeper understanding of the features of implementing IQAS standards.

The aim of the event was to enhance staff competencies in understanding the role, structure, and tools of IQAS as a key mechanism for ensuring and continuously improving the quality of the educational process.

Participants were introduced to the national quality assurance model, the structure of IQAS standards, current approaches to developing educational programs, student-centered learning, staff recruitment, requirements for learning resources, as well as issues of academic integrity, assessment, and internal monitoring.

The seminar became an important part of the university’s systematic work on strengthening the internal quality culture and preparing for the subsequent stages of external evaluation and accreditation.

Participants demonstrated a high level of engagement, actively asked questions, shared experiences, and proposed practical solutions to improve quality processes.

The Department of Accreditation and Quality Management expresses its gratitude to all seminar participants for their active involvement, interest, and commitment to developing the internal quality assurance system.

Such events contribute to strengthening the culture of quality and improving the effectiveness of the university’s educational process.
