In March, TEQSA senior staff visited Quezon City, the Philippines, to share information and exchange learnings with colleagues from the Philippines’ Commission of Higher Education.
The exchange is part of a 3-year program, supported by the Australian Government’s Southeast Asia and Australia Governance Partnerships program (SEAG2G). SEAG2G seeks to develop deeper institutional partnerships between Australia and Southeast Asia. It aims to increase awareness and understanding of the common opportunities and challenges faced by Australia and our Southeast Asian neighbours and share institutional knowledge and expertise. The program also seeks to support the establishment of high quality transnational education in the Philippines and other South East Asian nations.
Further, this sharing of knowledge and expertise looks to support the development and delivery of effective responses to critical economic development opportunities and challenges – such as higher education and transnational education.
During the exchange, TEQSA staff shared their knowledge and experience on topics such as balancing regulation and education, quality in transnational education, and institutional quality assurance.
TEQSA would like to thank the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade for sponsoring the SEAG2G initiative, and our Commission of Higher Education colleagues for their warm hospitality and hosting this valuable event.
We've established a new webinar series to help inform the sector about our regulatory work, quality assurance matters and sector risk.
All TEQSA Talks webinars will also provide opportunities for providers and other stakeholders to ask us questions.
Registrations are required for this free webinar series.
All webinars will be recorded and uploaded to our website.

TEQSA’s annual stakeholder consultation has been conducted each year since 2015-16 to gain insights into stakeholder views on the agency, its regulatory output and approach to risk. The annual survey also informs strategic initiatives in relation to continuous improvement, sector-wide risk management and stakeholder engagement. The results of past surveys have informed targets within the Regulator Performance Framework and TEQSA’s Corporate Plan as a measure of meeting key objectives.
Via an online survey with providers, TEQSA seeks to gain insights into provider views on the agency’s performance, in addition to potential and/or emerging sector-wide risks.
TEQSA engaged JWS Research as an independent market research provider to conduct and analyse results of their annual stakeholder survey.
