“In an increasingly competitive higher education landscape, quality assurance is a strategic competitive advantage. Institutions must move beyond rhetoric to measurable quality frameworks, align with regional and international standards, and cultivate a culture where quality is embedded in institutional policies and continuous improvement. This is what enables universities to remain relevant, accountable, and globally competitive.” Prof. Muoki Nzioki, President of East African Higher Education Quality Assurance Network (EAQAN)

“CBE is not about producing people who can simply do; it is about developing people who can think, act and apply knowledge. Cognitive, affective and psychomotor competencies are all essential to university education.” ~ Prof. Mike Kuria, CEO, Commission for University Education (CUE).

“CBE is not entirely new, and universities do not need to wait for a national framework to begin. Where institutions see value in it, they can start today - using existing standards to rethink programs, teaching and learning around the competencies graduates need for the future.” ~ Prof. Mike Kuria, CEO, Commission for University Education (CUE).
