Mater Dei Hospital

Malta Malta Quality Education, managed by ARP Group Ltd, provided specialised consultancy services to support Mater Dei Hospital in aligning with the quality standards set by the MFHEA.
Our comprehensive support and strategic guidance covered several key areas, including::

  • Support for MFHEA compliance: We provided technical and strategic consultancy to assist Mater Dei Hospital in aligning with the external quality assurance standards established by the Malta Further and Higher Education Authority (MFHEA). This included interpreting regulatory requirements, reviewing documentation and processes, and supporting the institution in preparing for the external audit and accreditation procedures.
  • Analysis and response to audit recommendations: We analysed the recommendations issued during the MFHEA external quality audit and developed detailed, actionable responses. Our work focused on enhancing continuous improvement processes, increasing transparency, and ensuring the long-term sustainability of educational programmes offered by the institution.
  • Development of the internal quality assurance aystem: We reviewed and refined the hospital’s internal quality assurance (IQA) policies and procedures. This involved establishing systematic mechanisms for ongoing programme monitoring, implementing structured feedback processes, and embedding a quality-driven approach to course design, delivery, and evaluation.
