Governance model
Clear accountability at every level.
Three lines of assurance: program owners execute controls, governance functions monitor and challenge, and independent audit and board oversight verify.
Academic Governance
Program architecture and academic quality: classification, curriculum, faculty, assessment, and academic appeals.
Clinical Governance
Scope, learner and client safety, live-contact authorization, supervision, competency, and incident review.
Compliance & Legal
Regulatory matrix, claims control, official-source validation, launch gates, and franchise compliance.
Data Protection Officer
Lawful processing, data inventory, vendor review, access control, and breach decisions.
Quality Council
Audit, KPI, corrective and preventive action, and management review.
Regulatory alignment
Philippine authorities lead. Benchmarks inform.
Course terminology alone never creates authority. Each control is classified as adopted, modified, superseded, not applicable, a gap, or pending validation.
CHED
Higher education standards, including BS Nursing, where a program is offered at that level.
TESDA
Technical-vocational qualifications, registered programs, and national competency certification.
