  • National University of Ireland, Galway Annual Institutional Quality
    National University of Ireland, Galway Annual Institutional Quality Assurance Report 2020 Based on the reporting period 1 September 2018 – 31 August 2019 The Cyclical Review Process Annual Institutional Quality Assurance Report Part 1 Overview of internal QA governance, policies and procedures Overarching institution-level approach and policy for QA (ESG 1.1) 1. Overarching Institution Quality Policy A brief synopsis of the overarching institution quality policy which sets out the links between QA policy and procedures and the strategy and strategic management of the institution. Continuous improvement to the quality of all activities across NUI Galway is the responsibility of every member of staff through their own individual efforts and through various organisational committees and units. Staff are guided in this endeavour through three key external standards: • Core Statutory Quality Assurance (QA) Guidelines • Sector Specific Quality Assurance Guidelines for Designated Awarding Bodies • Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education Area In addition, staff activities are guided by a number of additional external guidelines published by Quality and Qualification Ireland (QQI) and other bodies including IHEQN and the National Forum for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education. Continuous improvement by all staff to improving quality was also guided by the University’s strategy Vision 2020 and going forward by Strategy 2020-2025. The new plan is built on a foundation of core values that define the University’s purpose and priorities. Through the value of excellence the strategy will deliver an excellent student-centred, research-led teaching and learning experience. NUI Galway implements external standards and guidelines through a comprehensive QA system focussed on over 305 internal Policies and Procedures and that includes specific Policies and Procedures around internal monitoring and Quality Reviews (QRs).

  • James Hardiman Library, National University of Ireland, Galway
    James Hardiman Library, National University of Ireland, Galway Extract from the Librarian's Report 2001/2002 Highlights Building on the work of the previous year, the Senior Management Team identified a number of priority areas for library users and library staff and much progress was made in a number of these. Through cross-functional teams, some excellent work was done on: • Orientation Week • New Information Week • New Library Website • Library management system implementation and enhancement • Initial work on a new collection management policy • New signing and guiding system for the library. The off-campus meetings of the Team devoted considerable time to identifying and progressing strategic issues to include; supporting research; supporting distributed learning; contributing to the university e-learning strategy; staff training and development; services to users with disabilities and special needs and overall improvement of internal communications. On the latter, the Library Intranet is playing a vital role, as is the Newsletter and the Library website – but nonetheless Library management is conscious of the amount of senior staff time still expended on staffing issues, and the need to strike a balance to afford a more acceptable work load for all involved. Work began on progressing work-life balance through a partnership approach and a new Library social club was established. With improved flow of information within and across divisions, more time was spent at senior staff meetings on more strategic topics. Sadly, little progress can be reported on environmental issues, which continue to be of major concern to all staff, and there has been no increase in space or storage for users or library material.
