    (INQAAHE Conference, 9-11 April, 2013-Chinese Taipei, 2013-04-09) Peiris, C. N; Wickramasinghe, S; Peiris, S; Meegama, R; Upeksha, G; Hettiarachchi, S
    External Quality Assessment (EQA) is the major component of QA framework in Sri Lanka. The main function of EQA is to review the standard and quality of the HEIs and its programmes of study and to provide the outcome to stakeholders to observe their expectations. Due to lack of organized mechanism to monitor and evaluate the outcome of the EQA conducted in universities the improvement in quality is not visible. Also the System users are in different geographical locations and therefore, no access to observe the outcome of EQA’s. A web based approach was developed, as a method to achieve the expected outcomes of EQA’s. The system provides user friendly, accurate and up-to date information of EQAs and also it provides a feedback mechanism through online forms/questionnaires. The easy access of information would provide the authorities a basis for decision making to improve higher education sector in Sri Lanka.
