CHED and ADMU Speakers Lead Conversations at TUA’s Quality Assurance Day 2025

Trinity University of Asia held its first Quality Assurance Day on August 29 that brought together employees and student leaders for a focused look at how quality assurance sustains meaningful learning across the University. The event was initiated through the vision of University President Dr. Gisela Luna and organized by the Quality Assurance and Strategic Management Office (QASMO).

The discussion opened with Ms. Maria Rosario A. Banzon, Director of the Strategy and Quality Management Office of Ateneo de Manila University, who shared Ateneo’s practices on achieving quality and treating quality assurance as a continuous process that links planning, implementation, and review.

This was followed by Mr. Don S. Francisco, OIC–Supervising Education Program Specialist of the Quality Assurance Division, Office of Institutional Quality Assurance and Governance (OIQAG), of the Commission on Higher Education (CHED). He discussed building a quality culture in higher education and highlighted the role of clear standards, consistent application, and shared accountability across institutions.

After the talks, participants engaged in an open forum, where both employees and student leaders raised questions and shared their perspectives. This interactive exchange gave the community an opportunity to connect the discussions with their own experiences at TUA.

Quality Assurance Day 2025 sets a strong starting point for TUA’s ongoing efforts to sustain a culture of excellence, one that places students at the center and aligns daily work with the University’s mission.
