Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) and
National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC)
In pursuance of its Action Plan for performance evaluation, assessment and accreditation and quality up-gradation of
institutions of higher education, the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC), Bangalore proposes that
every accredited institution should establish an Internal Quality Assurance Cell (IQAC) as a post-accreditation quality
sustenance measure. Since quality enhancement is a continuous process, the IQAC will become a part of the institution’s
system and work towards realisation of the goals of quality enhancement and sustenance. The prime task of the IQAC is to
develop a system for conscious, consistent and catalytic improvement in the overall performance of institutions. For
this, during the post-accreditation period, it will channelize all efforts and measures of the institution towards
promoting its holistic academic excellence.
