The Quality Assurance and Academic Planning Directorate is the central point for external and internal quality review preparations and activities intended to support a cycle of continuous quality improvement across all areas of teaching and non-teaching life at Great Zimbabwe University. The directorate applies a quality assurance approach that is premeditated to sustain the University in its quest to become an institution that integrates quality into its daily activities. The University considers the fundamental principle of quality enhancement across all areas of university provision including: teaching and learning, research, community engagement, industrialisation, innovation and non-teaching services.

Great Zimbabwe University is unreservedly committed to upholding elevated academic standards by enhancing the quality of its activities. This is accomplished through the fine-tuning of its quality assurance processes which facilitate the institution to continuously improve, evaluate and redefine its actions so as to achieve its goals. Our quality assurance is also part of a tripartite approach that links strategy, performance and quality together. Strategy guides members towards a vision of the future and performance provides evidence of quality enhancement and strategy execution while quality focuses on assuring an appropriate standard of excellence. We look forward to your active participation in order to assure appropriate standards of excellence in all aspects of the University’s life.
