Akcils Quality Assurance Directorate Begins Compliance Monitoring Ahead Of Ncce Follow-Up

The Directorate of Quality Assurance of Aminu Kano College of Islamic and Legal Studies, AKCILS, has launched a College-wide monitoring and evaluation exercise to ensure full compliance with directives issued by the National Commission for Colleges of Education, NCCE, accreditation panel.

The initiative is part of Management’s strategy to swiftly address observations raised during the previous NCCE accreditation exercise and to consolidate the gains recorded by the College.

Speaking in an interview with the P&PR Directorate, the Director of Quality Assurance, Dr. Lami Shettima, said the Directorate is fully conversant with the benchmarks set by the accreditation team and is committed to driving compliance across all Schools concerned.

“As a key component of the accreditation process, it is our statutory responsibility and mandate to monitor, evaluate, and ensure that all Schools meet the standards prescribed by the NCCE panel. This is to complement the efforts of College Management in achieving the overall objectives of the exercise,” Dr. Shettima stated.

She explained that the monitoring will focus on critical areas including infrastructure, staffing, curriculum implementation, students’ records, and other academic requirements highlighted by the panel.

Dr. Shettima urged Deans and Heads of Departments to expedite action in addressing the identified gaps to enable the College to meet the set timelines.

“We call on all Schools concerned to treat this assignment with the urgency it deserves. Timely compliance will not only guarantee accreditation but will also elevate the quality of teaching, learning, and service delivery at AKCILS,” she said.

The College Management has reaffirmed its commitment to providing the necessary resources and support to ensure that AKCILS not only meets but also exceeds NCCE standards.
