About us:
The office of accreditation and quality assurance in the Faculty of Medicine was established in 2021. This was preceded by the formation of a supreme quality committee which oversees other faculty quality subcommittees. These committees were formed in preparation to the accreditation assessment by the Accreditation and Quality Assurance Commission for Higher Education Institutions (AQACHEI).
The office of accreditation and quality assurance monitors academic and administrative activities and works on maintaining its quality and develop improvement plans.
Our vision and goals:
We aim to maintain quality and fulfill accreditation requirements in academic programs at the faculty of medicine. Our goals are to achieve quality indicators by AQACHEI in Jordan, and thereafter fulfill the requirement of international accreditation bodies, such as the World Federation for Medical Education (WFME).
