Annual Monitoring and Review

On an annual basis Schools/Institutes review the programmes that they offer. There are two main elements to the Annual Monitoring and Review (AMR) process: Partner Annual Monitoring and Review (PAMR) and School Annual Monitoring and Review (SAMR).

School Annual Monitoring and Review (SAMR) Report

Following a review of all programmes delivered on and off-campus, by all modes of delivery, Schools will complete and submit a School-level Review and Enhancement Report to Academic Registry by 31 January of each year.

Partner Annual Monitoring and Review (PAMR) Reports

Following a review of all programmes delivered with academic partners, Schools and partners collaboratively produce reports for submission to Academic Registry by 31 January of each year.
