The AQHEd-SL partnership is creating an enabling environment for the introduction of outcome-based education by establishing a National Qualifications Framework and complementary assurance systems. It is supporting the implementation of outcome-based education by helping to realign curricula, building the capacity of staff and introducing innovative teaching and learning systems across higher education institutions. In this way, the partnership will lay the foundation for introducing innovative teaching and learning systems and ensuring lecturers can utilize emerging IT opportunities to create a rich mix of classroom experiences for students. The Pedagogical Training Workshops described in this manual are aimed at providing university faculty with fundamental knowledge and understanding of pedagogies that foster student-centered learning.

The AQHEd-SL project is funded by the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) as part of its SPHEIR (Strategic Partnerships for Higher Education Innovation and Reform) programme to support higher education transformation in focus countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia and the Middle East.
