Templates to support Course Alignment in Higher Education Programmes

The Cyprus Agency of Quality Assurance and Accreditation in Higher Education (CYQAA) has developed structured templates to support institutions in aligning learning objectives, instructional methods, and assessments. These templates aim to support institutions in maintaining transparency, achieving consistency, and meeting rigorous quality assurance criteria.

Alignment is critical to ensure that the components of educational programmes-learning οbjectives, instructional methods, and assessments-work cohesively to achieve desired learning outcomes. By fostering consistency and intentionality at both the programme and course levels, these templates provide a robust framework for quality assurance, and effective programme design.

Institutions are encouraged to integrate the templates during the design process for new programmes or for programmes undergoing re-evaluation.

Institutions may attach these as separate annexes within the application.
