Office of Strategic Planning and Academic Quality

• About Us

  The Strategic Planning and Academic Quality (SPAQ) office was established on 15 March 2014 after a re-organisation to incorporate the key functions of strategic planning and academic quality management into a single office. It aims to tap on the synergies and linkages between strategic planning and evidence-informed academic quality enhancement efforts to aid institute-wide planning, decision-making and quality assurance.

  Each of the functions under SPAQ is led by a head of department that reports directly to the Chief Planning Officer. The Strategic Planning Unit is headed by Ms Wong Su Ling and the Academic Quality Unit is headed by Associate Professor David Ng Foo Seong.

• Strategic Planning

  The Strategic Planning unit assists the NIE leadership in overseeing the formulation, implementation and communication of the Institute’s medium term strategic plan. It is also the Secretariat for the meetings of the NIE Council and its Executive Committee, the Director’s Strategic Review Meeting (DSM), the MOE-NIE Coordination Committee (MNCC) and the MOE-NIE Working Group (MNWG).

• Academic Quality

  The Academic Quality unit takes the lead in helping to promote a culture of continuous self-improvement and the adoption of best practices for NIE academic programmes. Through the gathering of evidence-based feedback from various stakeholders, trend analysis and academic reviews, SPAQ provides deep insight and analysis to aid programmatic and pedagogical enhancements.
