HEC is not only a university accrediting body, but also it has many development projects, ranging from faculty and development, to ensure the concept of good governance in universities, particularly the government universities. For this purpose policies have been revised and improvised for better implementation at all levels in universities, i.e. management, academics, research, etc. These terms and the vision have been clearly defined in the Medium Term Development Framework, MTDF. The HEC’s MTDF is, in fact, a roadmap for introducing a series of extensive reforms in the higher education sector of Pakistan.

For this purpose, there is a dire need to realize that the staff of HEIs also needs attention for making better governance at the universities. With the vision stated in MTDF, “The Higher Education Commission will facilitate Institutions of Higher Learning to serve as Engines of Growth for the Socioeconomic Development of Pakistan”. HEC has developed various reforms under which Capacity Building of Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) staff is one of the most important and prominent tasks.
