The Higher Education Evaluation and Accreditation Council of Taiwan (HEEACT) upholds the core spirit of evaluation professionalism and continuous improvement, and has long implemented internal quality assurance (IQA) mechanisms, establishing the credibility of an accreditation agency. As early as 2009, HEEACT proactively invited domestic and overseas scholars and specialists to complete its inaugural institutional self-assessment through on-site visits and peer reviews, pioneering the practice of autonomous quality assurance.

Thereafter, guided by the PDCA cycle of sustained enhancement, HEEACT has consistently completed a thorough self-assessment and procedural review prior to each international accreditation, laying the groundwork for alignment with cross-border external reviews. In 2020, HEEACT was recognized as achieving full compliance with the Guidelines of Good Practice (GGP) by the International Network for Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education (INQAAHE), and subsequently attained the same definitive distinction under the INQAAHE International Standards and Guidelines (ISG) in 2025.

Through ongoing self-evaluation and external accreditation, HEEACT persistently advances its standards, showcasing the professionalism, transparency, and sustainable quality culture of Taiwan's higher education quality assurance system to the worldwide community.
