Sumario:This report assesses the status and practice of higher education quality assurance in Sub - Sahara Africa, focusing on degree - granting tertiary institutions. A main finding is that structured national - level quality assurance processes in African higher education are a very recent phenomenon and that most countries face major capacity constrains.

Activities differ in their scope and rigor, ranging from simple licensing of institutions by the minis.
