GATS EXAMPLES

Cross border supply

consumption abroad

學生與教師到國外留學、短期進修、接受訓練等…

commercial presence

Quality Assurance is not only depend on the E & A; It might be a tool to examine that process! However…

It won’t go away or even more systems more examination ex. support from HEEACT; QS; THE etc.

Institutional advancement is one of the key factors: ex. global campus; collaboration with joint degrees; semi-profit universities; life-long learning or distance learning…

We might pay more attentions on the sustaining quality and continually rooting culture within HE system… on the field of…student learning outcomes; individual professional performance; impactful research; int’l competitiveness…etc..

My conclusion as the right moment
