The National Institution for Academic Degrees and Quality Enhancement of Higher Education (NIAD-QE) held its annual forum, the University Quality Assurance Forum 2022, under the theme of “Connecting inside and outside of university: Toward further integration of learning styles” in an online format on September 28, 2022, and nearly 400 participants joined from across Japan and beyond.

The role of the higher education sector in promoting lifelong learning is becoming more significant in Japan and worldwide, and the higher education community has begun to take initiatives in recognizing and incorporating students’ work experience, prior learning, and microcredentials acquired on and off campus.

Distinguished experts from Japan and abroad shared their insights on the articulation and continuation of learning inside and outside of universities, and discussed the future of higher education and its quality assurance.
