Quality Assurance Services

Our primary function is to provide reviews and audits for Universities and independent Higher Education Providers.

Our specialist expertise is in reviews of governance, especially academic governance, and the role of Academic Boards and their standing committees.

Hilary Winchester Consulting has undertaken more than a dozen such reviews for Australian institutions, ranging from large research-intensive universities to small independent providers.

We undertake compliance assessments against all Standards of the Higher Education Standards Framework (Threshold Standards) 2015 and the Education Services for Overseas Students Act 2000 and its recent amendments.
