Course Accreditation and Re-Accreditation Process (CARP)

The higher education Course Accreditation and Re-Accreditation Process (CARP) at Charles Darwin University (CDU) facilitates the effective and efficient accreditation and re-accreditation of CDU Academic Programs. The process is managed by the Accreditation and Quality Team, under the supervision of Director VET and Teaching Quality at CDU. There are two distinct stages that separate resource and planning issues from quality accreditation.

Resource and planning approval stage 1 of CARP

For courses being re-accredited, course developers are to use the pre-populated Resource and Planning Proforma provided by Accreditation and Quality. For new course proposals course developers should download the Resource and Planning Proforma below.

Please refer to the supplementary notes provided below when completing the Course Resource and Planning proforma.

Completed proformas are reviewed by Faculty Executive and submitted for final consideration by VCMG.

Quality accreditation stage 2 of CARP

The course developers work with the course advisory group to address all sections of the electronic proforma provided by Accreditation and Quality .
