Welcome to the Quality Assurance and Accreditation (QAA) Department section of the Arab Open University – Kingdom of Bahrain (AOU-Bahrain) website!
At AOU-Bahrain, we believe that quality education is essential for personal and professional growth. Our commitment to excellence is deeply rooted in the belief that everyone, regardless of their background, deserves access to high-quality learning opportunities. Our quality philosophy involves the active participation of all departments, ensuring that every aspect of our institution contributes to the overall learning experience.
Through our partnership with the Open University in the UK, we deliver a curriculum that adheres to international standards, equipping our graduates with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed. Collaboration includes the preparations for external audit and procedures of Accreditation and Academic Programmes Validation in addition to joint quality enhancement projects.
Furthermore, being part of a university that has branches in nine countries across the Arab region enriches our educational community. This diverse network allows us to share best practices, cultural insights, and innovative teaching methods, creating a dynamic learning environment that prepares our students for a globalized world. Quality Assurance activities are based on the strategic goals of AOU and are intended to support a cycle of continuous improvement and quality enhancement.
Moreover, we prioritize compliance with the bylaws and regulations set forth by Higher Education Council (HEC) in the Kingdom of Bahrain and the guidelines of Education & Training Quality Authority (BQA) in the Kingdom of Bahrain. This commitment not only strengthens our educational practices but also reinforces our dedication to providing a supportive and effective learning environment.
Thank you for visiting our site. We look forward to supporting your educational journey at the Arab Open University, where quality education meets a rich, multicultural experience.
